NABL (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories) is an autonomous body operating under the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India. It is responsible for accrediting testing and calibration laboratories across India to ensure they meet defined standards of quality, accuracy, and technical competence.
NABL plays a critical role in maintaining confidence in laboratory test results used by industries, regulators, courts, and consumers.
A NABL-based lab testing report is a report issued by a laboratory that has been officially accredited by NABL. Such accreditation confirms that the laboratory is technically competent and follows standardized testing and calibration procedures.
These reports are widely accepted because they are generated under controlled conditions, using validated methods and calibrated equipment.
NABL accreditation is a formal recognition that a laboratory can produce accurate, consistent, and reliable test results. The accreditation process involves detailed audits, technical assessments, and regular surveillance by NABL authorities.
Because of this rigorous evaluation, NABL-accredited laboratories are trusted by:
1. Government authorities
2. Regulatory bodies
3. Courts and legal institutions
4. Corporations and industries
NABL accreditation is granted based on globally recognized standards, including:
1. ISO/IEC 17025 – for testing and calibration laboratories
2. ISO 15189 – for medical laboratories
These standards cover critical aspects such as:
1. Laboratory management systems
