• Manufacturing and control of the intermediate solutions (bulks)
• Preparation of a custom-made solution  (the program determines the needed weights and controls the gravimetric process on the analytical balances)
• Control of the final product (instrumental or classical)
• Evaluating the final date and calculating the certified values and uncertainties
• Automatic printing of labels, certificates and MSDS
