Understanding GAC Accreditation and How Cotecna CPS Dubai Can Support Your Testing Needs

Cotecna CPS Dubai offers GAC-accredited ISO/IEC 17025:2017 testing services for textiles, toys, packaging and more, ensuring compliance and quality.

What is GAC Accreditation?

GAC, or the GCC Accreditation Center, is a recognized regional accreditation body responsible for ensuring that laboratories and certification bodies comply with international standards. Accreditation from GAC demonstrates competence, impartiality, and consistent operation, and is highly regarded across the GCC and beyond. 

One of the key standards GAC uses is ISO/IEC 17025:2017, the international benchmark for laboratory testing and calibration. Laboratories accredited under this standard have proven their ability to produce precise and accurate test and calibration data. 

Why is GAC Accreditation Important?

For businesses involved in manufacturing, exporting, or importing products in the Gulf region, working with a GAC-accredited lab ensures:

  • Reliable and valid testing results
  • Regulatory compliance with GCC standards
  • Reduced risk of product rejection or recalls
  • Enhanced consumer confidence through tested and safe products
