Vector Laboratories, a developer and manufacturer of labeling and detection reagents for biomedical research, has achieved ISO 9001:2015 certification. This designation certifies a high level of quality assurance and consistency and will be particularly relevant to customers buying custom and OEM products used for research in diagnostic and pharmaceutical discovery. 
 
ISO is the International Organization for Standardization, and the certification demonstrates Vector’s delivery of high-quality products. ISO standards help guide manufacturing and quality-control processes, documentation systems, customer service, product design and distribution and other support functions. 

“We began the exhaustive process of getting this certification in 2016,” said Eric Tardif, president of Maravai LifeSciences. “Attaining the ISO designation is really a starting point because there are certain steps that must be taken every year to maintain certification and ensure continual improvement of processes. The discipline and documentation that are required will give our customers confidence and give us a competitive edge.”
