A certified reference material, or CRM, from Restek
is in an exclusive subset of reference standards that
meets the following set of strict criteria defined
under ISO Guide 34 and ISO/IEC 17025:
• Made of raw materials characterized via qualified methods on qualified instruments.
• Produced in an ISO-accredited lab under documented procedures.
• Falls under the manufacturer’s scopes of accreditation.
Over 99% of the reference standards in the Restek® catalog are certified reference
materials. Many laboratories are required to purchase CRMs to satisfy their own
ISO requirements, but even if you are not, you can still benefit from the perfor-
mance, reliability, and consistency of Restek® certified reference materials.
