European standards

New to standards?

Standards are created by experts in different technical committees.
Different products might need a different testing approach.
That is why the group of glove standards has a different structure than e.g. the shoe standards. 
It might be helpful to walk through the first basic explanation if you have to deal with standards for the first time.
