After 3 months of intensive auditing, Corp Brothers, a PurityPlus Specialty Gas laboratory, was awarded the coveted ISO 17025 accreditation. The ISO 17025 accreditation is the quality standard for testing and calibration laboratories.

Corp Brothers, an independent specialty gas laboratory located in Providence, RI, is a member of the PurityPlus Specialty Gas producers group and one of 27 independently owned PurityPlus laboratories. They first joined the PurityPlus program in 2006. Though all PurityPlus producers must undergo a rigorous audit to be accepted as a producer, must maintain strict quality standards and must undergo annual audits to maintain their PurityPlus credentials, Corp Brothers saw the ISO 17025 accreditation process as an additional competitive advantage.

“As an ISO 17025 accredited lab, the traceability and reliability of our source products, in conjunction with our documented testing procedures, enables us to meet and exceed our customers' expectations every time,” notes Rob Walkinshaw, Corp Brothers’ laboratory manager.

He also notes that the company’s ISO 17025 accreditation will afford its customers the confidence they are purchasing products made to their exact specifications, the peace of mind that their products are traceable to a known ISO or NIST standard, and the assurance of the reliability of product quality, uniform from day to day and cylinder to cylinder.

“The ISO 17025 accreditation process would have been nearly impossible for Corp Brothers had we not been a member of the PurityPlus producers group,” notes Corp Brothers president Avery Seaman. “Our trust in the PurityPlus system of procedures, coupled with the insight and help of AsteRisk's Tom Badstubner, made this process possible as well as profitable.”
