Accredited services

The University of Warsaw Biological and Chemical Research Centre has the accreditation granted in 2014 by the Polish Center for Accreditation.

Accredited laboratories provide services in the field of:

• chemical research of chemical products;
• chemical research of products and construction materials;
• food chemical research;
• water chemical research and water for human consumption;
• soil chemical research;
• research on the physical properties of rocks.

Experienced staff and appropriate equipment facilities ensure the efficient execution of orders and the validity of the measurement results.

Laboratoria spełniają wymagania systemowe oraz techniczne normy PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018-02 „Ogólne wymagania dotyczące kompetencji laboratoriów badawczych i wzorcujących”.

The laboratories meet the system and technical requirements of PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025: 2018-02 “General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories”.

The center currently has an accreditation certificate valid until 17th of August 2022.
