Calibration & Metrological Traceability
Rhopoint Instruments operates a central ISO/IEC 17025‑accredited gloss laboratory in the United Kingdom, UKAS laboratory number 32245, with regional calibration services in Germany and the United States.
During recalibration at a regional location, gloss instruments are adjusted to Rhopoint manufacturer traceable standards, and the reference standard is replaced with a new standard certified by the UK laboratory in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025.
This combination ensures metrological traceability to the accredited UK laboratory while maintaining manufacturer‑controlled calibration through local service.
The UK laboratory is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 by UKAS for gloss calibration and the certification of high‑gloss reference tiles.
Neither Rhopoint Instruments GmbH nor Rhopoint Americas is itself ISO/IEC 17025‑accredited; regional calibration services are traceable to, but not performed within, the accredited laboratory.
