GLI becomes first accredited lab in Parana

Gaming Laboratories International is the first laboratory accredited in the state of Parana in Brazil and the first laboratory to be accredited following a formal process in the country.

The milestone achievement builds on GLI’s 25 years of service to the gaming industry throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. Loteria do Estado de Parana (LOTTOPAR) made the announcement yesterday and the laboratory accreditation authorises GLI to perform testing and certification of lotteries and fixed-odd sports betting based on technical standards required by LOTTOPAR.

“This notice, for the accreditation of testing and certification laboratories, for the lottery gaming industry, demonstrates the commitment of LOTTOPAR and the government of Parana to provide a safe and responsible environment for lottery operations, thus guaranteeing global safety standards,” said the director-president of LOTTOPAR, Daniel Romanowski.

“GLI has worked closely with regulators throughout Latin America and the Caribbean for 25 years, when we obtained the first laboratory accreditation in Peru, becoming the first country to establish the process in the region,” said GLI vice president of Latin America, Caribbea, and Spain Karen Sierra Hughes.

“Today, we are thrilled to achieve another historic milestone in our journey and to further assist the industry to move forward in Brazil. We are grateful to LOTTOPAR for their dedication to the regulated lottery and sports betting industry and for recognising GLI for our accreditations, capabilities and expertise.”
