International standards

International standards are agreed-upon guidelines or technical specifications developed by global organizations to ensure products, services, and processes are consistent, safe, and efficient worldwide. They help different countries and companies work together smoothly, reduce confusion, and improve quality. For example, standards for electrical outlets, safety protocols, or measurement units ensure that products and services can be used reliably across borders. These standards promote interoperability, safety, and fairness, making international trade and cooperation more seamless while maintaining high quality and safety levels.
