MEDICAL DEVICES ISO13485:2016

ISO 13485:2016 ISO 13485 is the international standard for medical devices and has many interfaces with ISO 22000 and HACCP. Compared to ISO 9001, the standard pays particular attention to specific requirements for medical devices, such as sterility, care, traceability, risk analysis and a warning / recall system. The focus is on customer-oriented production and distribution of medical devices and the well-being of the patient.

GOOD MANUFACTURING PRACTICES (GMP)

Candropharm is Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) certified. ISO 22716 is the new guidance for GMP for the cosmetics manufacturing industry and describes the principles of how to apply GMP in a facility that produces finished cosmetic products. 

  • GMP enables Candropharm to manage the quality and safety requirements of the supply chain.
  • GMP monitors the hazards and risks of cosmetics and enables continuous improvement.
  • GMP ensures that the organisation complies with the legislation.

BRIGHT LABS PARTNERSHIP

Meaningful measurements and results dominate the laboratory research of Brightlabs. Collaboration with the University of Maastricht, the College of Agriculture, governments and industry gives a strong impetus to both ambition and quality.
Brightlabs and Candropharm work closely together to increase knowledge about cannabinoids and thereby improve testing possibilities, which enables Candropharm to improve the quality of its products. Brightlabs tests the import and export of medical cannabis for the Bureau Medicinale Cannabis. The Bureau of Medicinal Cannabis is the Dutch government agency that deals with medical cannabis.
