Standards monitoring: an asset for the professional section of industrial mechanics

To be heard on the international level, better do it together. Such is the meaning of all the standardization efforts led by Cetim with all its professional mechanical engineering commissions.

Let us recall that Cetim provides more than 50% of the budget of the mechanical standardization union (MSU) {Union de Normalisation de la Mécanique (UNM)}. Its experts hold 210 seats in the national and international standardization committees.

A product or product-related service standard commits the entire supplier profession to a path that can be decisive for its national or international industrial development.

Participating in the development of standards is fundamental to making them evolve in the desired direction.

The profession develops a standards strategy based on the expectations of companies, their market positions, the possible repercussions of European or national regulations, national, foreign and international standards in their fields of activity, and finally the resources available.

It defines the necessary involvement in the normative work at the various national and international levels to assume the decided strategy, and to do so, appoints its representatives in the standardization committees.
