ISO Accreditation & Quality Standards

At The Pipette Doctor™, we offer both ISO/IEC 17025-accredited and non-accredited pipette calibration – you choose what best suits your requirements and needs.

Since December 2021, our laboratory in Täby has been accredited by Swedac in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 (No. 10489), which means that our calibrations meet all international requirements for traceability, reliability, and technical competence. Accredited calibration of multichannel pipettes is carried out by our partner Sartorius in Finland.

Accredited calibration
– a quality-assured calibration compliant with international standards

  • Performed in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 8655:2022
  • Calibration that meets international requirements for traceability, reliability, and competence

Non-accredited calibration
– a safe and cost-effective alternative

  • For organizations that require reliable and traceable measurement results but are not subject to requirements for accredited calibration.

  • Results are evaluated against applicable MPE tolerances (Maximum Permissible Error) in ISO 8655:2022 

Regardless of which option you choose, you can count on professional and reliable service.
