Quality & Accreditations

Global Quality

A constant attention to quality during every stage of the manufacturing process, from the smallest basic equipment to the most technologically advanced system.

ISO 9001:  Certified manufacturer

Since 2005 Matest quality management system is certified according to ISO 9001 Standard for the “Design, manufacture and sale of machines, equipment and measuring instruments for building materials testing and inspection”.

Adopting a quality management system is a strategic decision that helps to improve overall performance, thanks to the involvement of all stakeholders, as declared on our Quality Policy. 

Matest is also accredited as Calibration Laboratory Lat No. 214 for force testing of compression machines and material testing equipment, in compliance with EN ISO/IEC 17025 and EA/ILAC requirements.

The accreditation has then been extended to the calibration of the following testing equipment:

• Compression frames for tests on bitumen and soil
• Marshall and CBR frames
• Tensile splitting frames
• Pullout and plate bearing test

An Accredited Calibration service differences from a regular non-Accredited service for the following aspects:

• Accredited calibrations are made with sample instruments that have a direct traceability to the national ones and they have a known uncertainty.
• Accredited laboratories work with methods and measurement procedures that are periodically supervised and approved by Accredia, the sole accreditation body in Italy.
• Laboratories with accreditation are bound to operate with a quality management system in accordance with the requirements of UNI CEI EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018.

Managing an accreditation involves constant commitment that is meant to guarantee full reliability with the results and continuous updates of the various standards and prescriptions.
