ISO Standards

ISO 9001:2015

ISO 18385:2016

ISO 18385:2016 specifies requirements for the production of products used in the collection, storage, and analysis of biological material for forensic DNA purposes, but not those consumables and reagents used in post-amplification analysis.

The consumables and reagents covered by this International Standard include those used for evidence collection (sampling kits), such as swabs, containers, and packaging, and also products used in the analysis of DNA samples, such as tubes and other plasticware, disposable laboratory coats, gloves, and other consumables.

ISO 18385:2016 applies to the production of consumables and reagents which do not require cleaning for continued use. This International Standard does not cover technical product specifications (i.e. product design).

ISO 18385:2016 excludes microbiological testing.

ISO 18385:2016 specifies a requirement for manufacturers to minimise the risk of occurrence of detectable human nuclear DNA contamination in products used by the global forensic community.

Tetra Scene of Crime International Ltd provide a range of ISO 18385 consumables which undergo a
rigorous manufacturing process to meet the guidelines set out in the above ISO.

Tetra Scene of Crime International Ltd is now a member of the FSM1 committee on behalf of BSI to review and comment on the 18385:2016 standard’s upcoming review.

ISO 14001:2015

ISO 14001 is the internationally recognised standard for environmental management systems (EMS). It provides a framework for organisations to design and implement an EMS, and continually improve their environmental performance. By adhering to this standard, organisations can ensure they are taking proactive measures to minimise their environmental footprint, comply with relevant legal requirements, and achieve their environmental objectives. The framework encompasses various aspects, from resource usage and waste management to monitoring environmental performance and involving stakeholders in environmental commitments.

Celebrating Our Upcycle Recycling Program Success

We are thrilled to share that Tetra’s upcycle recycling program is thriving!

Thanks to generous donations of old and outdated equipment and consumables, we are able to give items a new purpose.

Instead of ending up in landfills, these resources are being forwarded to film, TV productions, universities, and schools.

This initiative not only promotes sustainability but also empowers the next generation of innovators and thinkers.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed! Your support is making a real difference.

So, at the end of your next production, if you have any items you no longer need, please give us a call.

We welcome all kinds of items, so they don’t have to be related to crime scenes or forensics!

Feel free to reach out, as we have avenues for many unusual items.
