ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, is an independent non-governmental organization whose members are the standardization bodies of the 163 member countries. It is the world's largest developer of voluntary international standards and facilitates world trade by providing common standards among nations. Over twenty thousand standards have been established, ranging from manufactured goods and technology to food security, agriculture and health care.
The use of standards helps to create safe, reliable and good quality products and services. Standards help companies increase productivity and minimize errors and waste. By allowing the direct comparison of products from different markets, they facilitate companies to enter new markets and help in the development of global trade fairly. Standards also serve to protect consumers and end users of products and services by ensuring that certified products meet internationally established minimum standards.
