As such we participate in many of the interlaboratory analyses which BAS organises in order to prepare their world-renowned Certified Reference Materials (CRMs). These provide a continuous benchmark for our analytical capabilities as well as contributing to the preparation of CRMs which are essential tools for the analytical industry.

Our association with BAS, and provision of certification analyses for their world renowned CRMs strengthens our expertise in the analyses of irons and steels, non-ferrous metals, minerals, ores, refractories, ceramic materials and cements, for which the main analytical techniques we use are:
