In February 2020, the update of the testing laboratories of the Versuchs- und Lehranstalt für Brauerei in Berlin (VLB) e.V. to the current DIN EN ISO / IEC 17025: 2018 "General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories" was carried out by the german accreditation body “Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle GmbH" (DAkkS).

After extensive preparations, the VLB was able to demonstrate to the DAkkS during the on-site assessment that the new regulatory requirements for competence were met and implemented convincingly. This affects, among other things, the personnel, ensuring the validity of test results and dealing with risks and opportunities.

Upon receipt of the accreditation certificate on 10 June 2020, the changeover was successfully completed and the VLB testing laboratories was accredited for the future. We can therefore guarantee our customers and partners the highest quality services in the future.

You can see the scope of our accredited testing services on the accreditation certificate and the associated appendix.
