🎉 Congratulations to Siderise Group on its recent grant of accreditation! Director of Testing at Siderise, Chris Mort (who pioneered the Innovation Centre project from the beginning) commented on the achievement: "We constructed the Innovation Centre to meet the increasing demand for testing and data for projects and product development, and a shortfall in available furnace time - with the longer-term goal of making fire performance testing more accessible to our key industry stakeholders. From the outset, we knew we wanted to obtain UKAS accreditation to ensure we were operating it correctly to the international standard of competency. The whole process has moved smoothly, from applying for the accreditation in November 2023, with the assessment being carried out in January 2024 and final certification awarded in July. This is in part thanks to the hard work of our testing team, whose skills, knowledge and experience have been invaluable in establishing robust SOPs.” #AccreditedTesting #ISO17025
