Certified Reference Material (CRM) is essential for carrying out and monitoring chemical analyses, thus acting as a direct determinant of the quality level of the material produced or marketed by a company;

Standards (CRMs) are used to calibrate analytical equipment and can act as arbiters in the decision-making process on acceptance or disapproval of results, being an indispensable tool for quality control.
