ISO Registration: International Organization for standardization in short known as ISO. The word ISO is derived from the Greek ISOS meaning ‘equal’. ISO story was begun in 1920 in Geneva, Switzerland, as the International Federation of the National Standardizing Associations (ISA). During the 2nd World War, in 1942, it was suspended, but delegates from the ISA and the UNSCC met in London in October 1946 and agreed to join forces to form the new International Organization for Standardization. In February 1947, the new entity became operational.

Since the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) would translate differently in different languages, the organization's short-form name was chosen. The ISO has expanded to become a confederation of delegates representing more than 150 countries, with over 16,500 international standards issued. They get together on a regular basis to discuss new and existing management standards.

ISO is International Organization for Standardization and ISO Certification provides the assurance that the product/service meets the requirement of the standard and mark quality. We can describe standards as the quality, safety, and efficacy of the products or services provided by enterprises.
