Certified Laboratories’ Rich History of Testing Excellence
Our story begins in 1926 when Dr. Charles Paley established Certified Laboratories in New York City. Originally known for our strong focus on dairy testing, we soon expanded our analytical testing capabilities to additional industries. Beginning in 1987, a series of strategic acquisitions further enhanced our services. In 2021, we reached a new milestone by joining Certified Group, solidifying our position as a lab testing leader and expanding our national footprint for our clients.
