Labquip NDT to expand facilities and services for UK market

01/02/2022

Labquip NDT Limited has been awarded ISO 9001 quality certification, a move that has led to fast-track growth for the company within the UK market.

Andrew Ryan, Sales Manager at Labquip NDT, UK, said: “By gaining full ISO 9001:2015 certification for our operation, we are preparing additional UK services in order to confirm
our position as a leading supplier of elemental analysis, material inspection and non-destructive testing (NDT) equipment and products.

“We are delighted to pass this important milestone at the first time of asking. Full credit should be extended to the whole Labquip NDT team, along with David McCallum of Noviqa (ISO consultant), who made this happen.”

The new ISO 9001 standard also supports Labquip NDT’s growing reputation within high-end UK research centres and leading UK manufacturing sites. Labquip NDT provides increased UK representation of Waygate Technologies in addition to a growing installation base of Brüker hand-held X-ray fluorescence (XRF), optical emission spectroscopy (OES) and combustion gas analysis (CGA) analysers.

Labquip’s quality assurance success also paves the way for the provision of the UK’s first Labino AB Apollo 2.0 calibration service for radiometry and photometry. Labquip NDT plans to open the new UK Labino service centre for business by the end of the second quarter of 2022.

Labino and Labquip are currently working on creating a twin copy of Labino’s ISO 17025-accredited laboratory with scope in UV-A and visible light calibrations on the Labino Apollo 2.0. This will be the eighth such Labino laboratory in the world and a first for the UK.

Local independent UKAS 17025 certifications will be added once the laboratory is established.

Labquip NDT will also have full UK service coverage for the Agfa Structurix film processor range, expanding on its existing group capabilities.

Labquip NDT is a UK registered company and shares the same systems as its Irish sister company, benefitting from the same CRM system that deploys part numbers, minimum stock levels, service engineer stocks (vehicle) and all other elements for the delivery of first-class products and services to the UK’s laboratory sectors.
