Below is the process for selecting laboratories to test products for SWR Institute’s Product Validation Program.</p> <ul> <li>Possible product validation laboratories must be submitted to SWR Institute prior to the submission of the product validation application for approval.</li> <li>Submitted laboratories must be accredited by NVLAP, IAS, ACLASS or other approved accreditation programs that are ILAC-MRA signatories prior to, and during, the testing process.</li> <li>It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to ensure the accreditation of the laboratory used for product validation testing is current.</li> <li>Laboratories used for validation testing purposes must be independently owned and operated. No laboratory can have any interest in the manufacturing company having products validated.</li> </ul> <p>Please make sure the laboratory you are using has the proper and current accreditation as listed above. <br /> <br /> <a class="button submit" href="/LabForm" target="_blank">CLICK HERE</a> to submit the lab you wish to validate your product(s) to the SWR Institute Validation Committee.
