Management system recognition
Since 2017, 5 RSB metrology laboratories have acquired international accreditation and one is applying for accreditation from by Germany Accreditation agency (DAkkS), one of the world’s leading accreditation bodies.
The metrology laboratories namely; mass, balance, volume and temperature calibration, were accredited in a bid to enhance trust of the metrology services offered and promote exports and facilitate their access to international markets. This is the result of continuing efforts to strengthening metrological services in Rwanda with the objective of supporting economic growth through accurate and efficient measurements system in industries, trade transaction and safety.
With the accreditation of these laboratories, it is an assurance to clients seeking metrology services that there is no difference between measurements carried out in Rwanda with those carried out elsewhere in the world, therefore helping to enhance the Made-in-Rwanda policy as the country’s exports are more trusted abroad.
“RSB services are delivered in consideration of gender equality to ensure inclusive sustainable socio-economic development”
