Using standards to open the door to new markets
Australian industry is faced with an increasingly challenging and competitive international landscape that is defined by geopolitical and technological change. Using international standards allows Australian businesses to meet internationally recognised benchmarks, making it easier to compete and sell anywhere in the world by giving their products a competitive edge.
