Several laboratories in Corporate Analytics have the authorization to perform analyses according to the guidelines of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) pursuant to the requirements of the Chemicals Act (ChemG). Tests under GLP conditions provide the formal framework for investigations associated for instance with registration of substances and mixtures or REACH EU chemicals regulations. They are required by law in order to ensure environment and consumer protection.

The authorization of Corporate Scientific Solutions as a test laboratory according to GLP-guidelines allows mutual international acknowledgement of test results and ensures comparability of data collected for the respective Regulatory Authority. A positive side effect of international acknowledgement is to avoid unnecessary multiple investigations.

Regular inspections by Ministerium für Arbeit, Gesundheit und Soziales (MAGS) of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia take place every three years.
