ISO 13485 is the internationally recognised Quality Management System [QMS] standard for the medical device industry. It defines the requirements for organisations involved in the design, manufacture, distribution, or servicing of medical devices to ensure consistent quality, regulatory compliance, and patient safety.
With its focus on risk management, product safety, and meeting global regulatory expectations, ISO 13485 certification demonstrates a company’s commitment to quality and continuous improvement. Although not legally required for all medical devices in the UK, it is widely recognised and often expected in NHS procurement and when working with regulators such as the MHRA.
