How to Authenticate Beta Analytic’s Reports

To help its clients assure third parties that their biobased testing results are legitimate, ISO 17025-accredited lab Beta Analytic has set up a report validator in its website. Third parties can now verify the authenticity of a Beta Analytic report presented to them.

The certificate identification number (ID) and the biobased percentage found in the report are required. If the report is authentic, a check mark is displayed. If the biobased percentage is incorrect, an error message is displayed together with an X mark.

For inquiries or clarifications, please email the lab.

Note: The Biobased Report Validation tool is available for reports generated from September 2017.
