ISO

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an international standard-setting body based in Switzerland, comprising representatives from various national standards bodies. The organization was established in 1947 to develop common international standards in many areas. There are over 158 members of the ISO. Its main products are international standards, but the ISO also publishes technical reports, technical specifications, publicly available specifications, technical corrigenda, and guides. Among the numerous standards produced by the ISO are the ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 families of standards, and more recently ISO 22000, which are explained below.
