The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an independent organization that helps create and promote international industrial standards. Developed in 1946 by industrial leaders and engineers, the ISO has helped to improve international relations, increase and improve global trade, and protect consumers from faulty or low-quality goods and services. The ISO is based in Geneva, Switzerland, where it operates a Central Secretariat. ISO members, committees, and experts meet regularly to propose, discuss, and evaluate new standards for a variety of world markets. Over its decades of work, the ISO has created approximately 21,900 standards in technology and manufacturing that affect members in 162 countries.
