Where a test finds its laboratory

One field and three ways of searching. You type the name of a test (“chlorides”, “water”), a standard number (“PN-EN ISO 5815”, “VDA 19”) or a city, when you want the sample not to travel across half the country. Plus filters: country, category, city — and a map view.

The search engine does not browse laboratory websites, but the items of their accreditation scopes. The counter below the filters shows an honest split: how many laboratories are already active on the platform and how many come from the imported database of scopes.

This is something no company directory does. The accreditation scopes of laboratories from seven countries have been loaded, broken down into items and linked to standards. The laboratory profile shows the accreditation number, the document issue and date, the test fields with the original scope codes, and the full list of standards used.

For a laboratory this means a sentence that sounds surprising: your scope of accreditation is probably already in the database. All you need to do is claim the profile and add your commercial details.

The most visited part of the portal and its magnet for laboratory staff. The methods are grouped into nine families, with a counter for each and a search by name, parameter or standard. The entries are not marketing — they are bench-level descriptions.

Each method has its own page built like a working instruction. The header gives the standard, the category and a summary of “what it is about” — with the measuring range, the number of procedure steps and the time needed. The rest is spread over tabs:

The last tab closes the loop: from the method description you go straight to the laboratories that have it in their scope of accreditation — and send a request.

Instead of writing the same e-mail to eight laboratories, you describe the test once and send the request to many recipients at once. The answers arrive in one panel and are shown side by side.

• You describe the test once — a form instead of eight messages
• Sent to many laboratories at the same time
• Offers compared in one panel, not in a spreadsheet
• The company account is free — on the free plan a request goes to one laboratory

The laboratory receives a profile visible to companies looking for tests and a panel in which it receives and answers requests for quotation. The profile is free for good — only the commercial functions are paid.

• Claim the profile — the scope of accreditation is already in the database, you just need to confirm it
• Answer panel — incoming requests in one place
• Profile badges — accreditation, scope, Premium highlight
• Priority in search results on the Pro plan

The verified laboratories on the platform include a technical cleanliness testing centre (VDA 19), a laboratory in the field of water and microbiology, and a laboratory in the field of materials and petrochemistry.

The interface works in four languages, and the database covers laboratories from seven countries. It is the answer to situations in which a Polish company needs a test in Czechia, a German one is looking for a provider in Poland, and a buyer from Asia wants to commission a test in Europe.

The difficulty is that each country has its own accreditation body and its own scope format. The portal brings them to a common structure, so results from a Lithuanian and a Polish laboratory can be compared in one table.

A service for unusual cases — when a test is rare, urgent or has to be split across several laboratories. You describe what you need, and the LabCoda.pl team searches the database, contacts the laboratories and hands over ready proposals together with contacts.

The service is charged separately — always quoted before work begins.
