Good Laboratory Practice
The term “GLP,” or “Good Laboratory Practice,” refers to a quality system applicable to non-clinical studies that evaluate the safety and efficacy of chemicals, medical devices, and pharmaceuticals intended for use in humans, animals, or the environment. GLP encompasses a set of quality standards that ensure the uniformity, consistency, reliability, reproducibility, quality, and integrity of non-clinical safety tests for chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The GLP quality system was adopted by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in 1992.
We obtained GLP certification in 2016 and have renewed it biannually since then.

ISO 13485 – Quality management systems for medical devices
This standard specifies the requirements for a quality management system that enables an organization to demonstrate its ability to manage products and services that meet customer requirements and applicable regulations.
This management system can be applied by organizations involved in one or more stages of the life cycle of a medical device, including design and development; storage and distribution; installation; technical support; and final uninstallation and disposal, as well as the provision of related services (such as technical support).
We obtained ISO 13485 in 2024.
