What ACS Registrars Pakistan does

ACS Registrars Pakistan (Pvt.) Ltd. is a Lahore-based conformity assessment body founded in January 2010 that provides third-party certification services for international management system standards. The company received Pakistan National Accreditation Council (PNAC) accreditation in 2015, enabling it to issue PNAC-accredited certifications for ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), ISO 45001 (Health & Safety), and ISO 22000 (Food Safety), alongside a broader portfolio spanning ISO 13485, 27001, 18788, 50001, 22716, 21001, 20121, 37001, 39001, 10002, HACCP, GMP, and Halal certification (via partner AHCS Conformity Assessment, HCB # 017).
