Recently, Shanghai Universal Laboratory,

a subsidiary of COSCO SHIPPING Development, officially passed

the rigorous evaluation by the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment (CNAS) and

successfully obtained the CNAS Laboratory Accreditation Certificate.

This marks that the company's laboratory has fully met national and international accreditation standards

in its management system,

testing capabilities, and technical expertise.

It is now qualified to issue authoritative, impartial, and

internationally recognized test reports,

establishing itself as a professional and authoritative technical support platform in the container manufacturing sector.

CNAS accreditation represents China’s most authoritative laboratory qualification certification, with evaluation criteria aligned with international best practices. It encompasses the entire operational process, from management system compliance to technical competency validation and data traceability.

Hmm? What exactly does Shanghai Universal Laboratory do?

As a globally leading enterprise in container R&D, production, and manufacturing, Shanghai Dong Fang International relies on product quality as its core competitive edge to secure market presence and earn customer trust. The company's laboratory, as a critical link in ensuring product quality, undertakes multiple key testing tasks including raw material analysis, welding process validation, coating performance testing, and structural strength evaluation.

What is the significance of Shanghai Universal Laboratory obtaining CNAS accreditation?

This signifies that Shanghai Universal's laboratory has reached industry-leading standards in environmental facilities, equipment precision, personnel capabilities, testing methods, and quality control, providing robust technical support for the full lifecycle quality management of container products.

It also means the laboratory’s test reports now hold an international "passport,"—gaining mutual recognition across 158 countries and regions under the framework of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC). Moving forward, whether it's the R&D verification of new specialized containers or quality sampling during mass production, this authoritative report will provide robust data assurance for product exports and the deepening of international cooperation.
