ISO originated from the union of two organisations the ISO (International Federation of the National Standardizing Associations) and the UNSCC (United Nations Standard Coordinating Committee). In 1946 over 25 countries met at the Institute of Civil Engineers in London to create a new international organisation, where the objective was to facilitate the international coordination and unification of industrial standards From this the new organisation ISO began operations in February 1947. The word ISO is derived from the Greek ISOS meaning equal. As the International Organization for Standardization would translate differently across different languages it was decided that the short form name for the organisation would be ISO. Today the ISO has grown to a confederation of delegates representing over 150 countries and has published over 16, 500 international standards. They meet on a regular basis to further develop new and existing management standards.

Many products require CE marking before they can be sold in the EEA ( EU + Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway). CE marking proves that your product has been assessed and meets EU safety, health and environmental protection requirements. It is valid for products manufactured both inside and outside the EEA, that are then marketed inside the EEA. To affix the CE marking to your product, you must put together a technical dossier proving that your product fulfils all the EU-wide requirements. As the products manufacturer, you bear sole responsibility for declaring conformity with all requirements. Once your product bears the CE marking, you might have to provide your distributors and/or importers with all the supporting documentation concerning CE marking. The directives often use a series of questions about the nature of your product to classify the level of risk and refer to a chart called Conformity Assessment Procedures. The chart includes all of the acceptable options available to a manufacturer to certify their product and affix the CE Marking.
