With over 500 qualified technical and scientific personnel and more than 25,000 experts voluntarily associated with standardization activities, BIS has formulated around 19,000 standards in various technological and industrial areas. Every year, more than 300 new standards and 300 amendments are published.

Indian Standards have been segmented into 14 Sections as per their Technical Divisions.

BSI
British Standards Institution

BSI, earlier known as British Standard Institution was the world’s first National Standards Body Formed in 1901 by Sir John Wolfe-Barry - the man who designed London’s Tower Bridge. BSI produces British Standards, and, as the UK's National Standards Body, is also responsible for the UK publication in English, of international and European standards. BSI is obliged to adopt and publish all European Standards as identical British Standards (prefixed BS EN). BSI also has the option to adopt and publish international standards (prefixed BS ISO or BS IEC).

CSA
CSA Group

CSA began as the Canadian Engineering Standards Association (CESA) in 1919, federally chartered to create standards.

For 100 years, CSA has remained an organization dedicated to safety, sustainability, and social good. From developing standards for aircraft parts, bridges, and wire rope in 1919, to enhancing standards with over 70,000 global members.

DIN
