EUROLAB Foundation & Objectives27th of April of 1990
Vision
“ When a group of Directors of eminent public and private laboratories took the initiative to create Eurolab back in 1990, they shared a common vision: the European harmonized internal market could only prosper based on improving the quality and safety of products, goods and the environment, both to serve the European Citizens and to improve the competitiveness of European companies and services on world market ”.
Alan Bryden (EUROLAB President 1990-1994), Eurolab 25th Anniversary Book
1st EUROLAB General Assembly, 1990

EUROLAB Foundation & Objectives
Objectives1. Constitute a forum for exchange of opinions and experience for the testing and
analytical community of Western Europe.
2. Coordinate the interface of the laboratory community with the other sectors of the economy interested in their activities: industry, users, public authorities, accreditation and certification bodies, etc.
3. Provide an infrastructure for scientific and technical cooperation for the laboratories in Western Europe.

TIC Sector
Testing and inspection services support the quality and safety of products through product
performance evaluations. For placing a product falling in the scope of a regulation on the
market in nearly all countries a proof of conformity with the regulation is required. EUROLAB Policy Paper

EUROLAB key objectives:Representation by formulating and voicing the opinion of laboratories regarding economic, political and technical issues having a direct impact on laboratories’ activities both on the European scene and world-wide.
Co-ordination by interfacing with organisations having activities of interest to the laboratory community, and striving to avoid duplication of efforts and activities.
EUROLAB should be the major multisectorial and horizontal forum for the circulation and exchange of information and experience in development of:
� Test, measurement and analytical methods� The use of test and analytical results in the implementation of legislation and
directives, in product certification and acceptance, and in technical evaluations� New measurement and testing techniques for example within the EC
framework programmes, as well as� Quality assurance measures

EUROLAB aisbl - Role and added-value
Networking of European Experts
The EUROLAB Political Strategy aims, among others, to increase the visibility of the laboratory community and to promote meetings with the EU institutions and relevant stakeholders.
In line with this strategy, EUROLAB has established the Experts Advisory Groups (EAGs)in key areas:
Health & Safety Calibration & Metrology Consumer Products
Energy & Energy Efficiency Medical Laboratories & Devices Chemicals
Accreditation Food Agriculture & Animal Health etc…
These EAGs have members from the EUROLAB National Members who will help establish and maintain relations with EU institutions (e.g. the European Commission) and other stakeholders and discuss topics of concern in these specific fields.
