S-lon Lanka (Pvt) Ltd was recently recognised with the accreditation from Sri Lanka Accreditation Board (SLAB) against ISO 17025 standards for plastic pipe testing for its Mechanical Quality Assurance (QA) Laboratory. 


Continuing its streak of industry firsts, the S-lon QA Laboratory is the first and only laboratory in Sri Lanka to receive such an accreditation for plastic pipes which recognizes the laboratory’s capability to meet international standards for testing.


S.C Weerasekara, Group Director / COO of The Capital Maharaja Group, commenting on this latest achievement, stated, “For 65 years we have thrived by offering products of the highest quality to our customers, in line with our corporate ethos of not offering any products to the market unless they can be consumed by our own family and friends. 


We believe that offering high quality products with unparalleled customer service will turn customers in to Brand Evangelists and we cherish the trust placed in us for many years.”


The ISO 17025:2017 certification is an international standard that specifies general requirements for competence, impartiality, and consistent operation of laboratories.  In lieu of the accreditation, S-lon Lanka (Pvt) Ltd, will now extend its testing services to external parties as well, supporting the other suppliers of the industry to offer safe, high-quality products to the export market by meeting international standards.
