ISO Standards for Quality, Measurement, Safety, and Environment

Quality Systems, Testing Programs, and Safety Requirements Based on ISO Standards Improve Company Positioning Internationally

The quality-related standards from ISO in this collection provide a sound basis for internationally accepted quality management systems and processes. The other standards in this ISO collection of more than 1,400 documents provide safety standards, test methods, environment safety and protection, and well as standardized terminology that facilitate business in international markets.

These ISO standards provide anyone involved in testing, sampling, and rating of the results as well as anyone needing definitions for technical drawings with critical information. Additionally, toy safety requirements and testing are covered by standards in this collection.

Subjects addressed by ISO in these standards include fire resistance tests, calibration, information and documentation, environmental management impact assessment, drafting standards, qualification of personnel in all kinds of testing and inspection, determination of sound levels and attenuation, office visual display terminals, water quality and more. The broad range of standards categories in this collection from ISO include: 

• Quality Management, including customer satisfaction, systems and quality plans, accuracy, precision, performance improvement.
• International Terminology including preparation and layout.
• Non-destructive testing, including ultrasonic inspection, industrial radiographic illuminators, metallic materials.
• Statistical Methods, guidelines for evaluation, measurements of fluid flow, flow diagrams, implementation of statistical processes, statistical aspects of sampling, tolerancing profiles and prediction intervals, interpretation of results, means and variances.
• Ergonomics: design of control centers, static working postures, lifting and carrying, requirements for visual display units, design of work systems, thermal environment.
• Water quality: benzene, pH, phenol Indexes, turbidity.
• Technical Drawings including principles of presentation, lines by CAD system, leader lines, reference lines and more, shipbuilding drawings, graphical symbols for diagrams, records management, safety colors and signs, drawing sheet size and layout.
• Acoustics: measurement of sound insulation in buildings, noise control design, determination and measurement of noise, reverberation, sound power levels, external noise sources.
• Environmental Management: assessment of sites, labels and declarations, life cycle assessment, vocabulary, systems auditing.
• Clean rooms and associated control environments, protection clothing
• Testing and calibration
• Quantities and Units, general principles, nuclear reactions, ionizing radiations, space and time, mathematical signs and symbols, solid state physics, heat, mechanics, electricity and magnetism, acoustics, fluid flow, uncertainties and more.
• Safety of Toys: flammability, safety of mechanical parts, migration of elements.
• Fire resistance: tests to elements of buildings.
• Third Party assessment, guidelines, conformity marks and misuse.
• Indoor Air: sampling, Formaldehyde, Corbonyl, volatile organic compounds.
