CCiTUB renewed the ISO 9001:2015 certification and the registration as an Agri-food Laboratory of Catalonia

The Scientific and Technological Centers of the University of Barcelona have renewed the ISO 9001:2015 certification. This certification guarantees the utilization of a Quality Management System, which also meets the requirements of the Standards of Good Manufacturing (GM) to support the activities of public and private research and provides scientific, technological, and analytical services.

This certification has also been renewed for the provision of services performed by the Radiological Protection Unit of the CCiTUB. Both certificates are valid until 2023.

In the same way, CCiTUB have also renewed the inscription in the Register of the Generalitat of Catalonia as Agri-food Laboratory of Catalonia until 2025. This renewal allows CCiTUB to perform analysis and control agricultural production means and food products used in both human and animal nutrition.

Certificates for 15 years

The first certification ISO 9001 dates back to 2005, at which time the provision of services was certified as well as all the research support activities carried out by the CCiTUB. This certification guaranteed the quality of the service given to users and had a direct impact on the excellence of their research.

This first certification was largely possible thanks to the Quality Assurance Unit (UGC) of the then Scientific and Technical Services, a pioneering unit throughout the Universitat de Barcelona. Later, the UGQ became part of the UB's Policy and Quality Agency, created in 2007, and was renamed the Research Quality Service. From this new name and structure it continues to support the CCiTUB.
