Solar Atmospheres has become the first company to receive MedAccred critical process reaccreditation.

The company has also expanded its scope of accreditation to include hardness testing and metallography and microindentation hardness.

MedAccred is an industry-managed critical process supply chain oversight program which was developed by leading medical device companies to improve device quality and improve patient safety. The first MedAccred critical process accreditation was issued in early 2015 to Solar Atmospheres Inc for heat treating.
