What are standards? A standard is a set of technical definitions, instructions, and guidelines for designers, manufacturers, users, inspectors, government agencies, etc., that are used to promote safety, reliability, efficiency, uniformity, and interchangeability for a wide-variety of engineering disciplines.
Used for equipment in the bioprocessing, pharmaceutical, and personal-care products industries, as well as other applications with relatively high levels of hygienic requirements, including materials, design, fabrication, inspections, testing and certification.
