Recently, V&T officially launched its ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory accreditation system development project. This initiative is not about pursuing the prestige of a certification; rather, it is a pragmatic choice based on the company's long-term development strategy. The goal is to enhance the laboratory's technical competence and service quality through standardized management, thereby providing a more solid guarantee for product quality.

ISO/IEC 17025 is an internationally recognized standard for laboratory competence, covering core aspects such as management, technology, and operations. It requires not only a standardized management system but also emphasizes the continuous improvement of technical capabilities and the traceability of results. For V&T, the implementation of this system brings three key practical benefits:

• First, it improves testing reliability. Through staff training, equipment calibration, and method validation, the company ensures accurate and consistent test reports, providing credible data support for R&D and production.
• Second, it enhances market competitiveness. Once accredited, test results gain international mutual recognition, helping the company overcome technical barriers and expand into both domestic and global markets.
• Third, it optimizes internal management. By refining quality manuals, procedural documents, and record-keeping systems in accordance with the standard, V&T promotes standardized and transparent processes while reducing operational risks.

Following the project launch, V&T will submit its accreditation application as planned and undergo on-site assessments by evaluation teams, including equipment inspections, personnel evaluations, and report audits. Ultimately, CNAS (China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment) will issue the laboratory accreditation certificate.

The company firmly believes that certification is not the endpoint but a new starting point for continuous improvement. V&T will not rest on obtaining a certificate alone but will take concrete actions to consistently elevate its laboratory capabilities to new heights.
