MON, FEB 24 2020-theG&BJournal- The Standard Organization of Nigeria (SON) today announced plans to establish laboratories in the six geo-political zones of the country for testing products and ensuring standardization in the country as well as to ensure products met required standards for certification
SON said it would ensure that products within each region could easily be tested at the regional laboratories, instead of sending them to its laboratories in Lagos, Kaduna or Enugu.
SON in the last four to five years has built a new laboratory complex consisting of about 36 labs in Ogba Industrial Estate in Lagos.
‘’A lot of laboratories within the complex have already attained international accreditation,’’ SON noted. ‘’The purpose of building more laboratories in the different regions is to ensure that the result of whatever test that is carried out there is accepted globally.’’
The organisation said that the establishment of the labs is aimed at supporting governments Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP) to ensure that Nigerian products and produce were easily exported without rejection.
