About BSi
The British Standards Institute (BSi), which is now the world's leading standards and quality services organisation, was formed in 1901 and incorporated under Royal Charter in 1929. The BSi is the oldest national standards-making body in the world.

What are British Standards?
BSi's British Standards are codes of best practice that improve safety, efficiency, interoperability and facilitate trade.

BSi Standards cover every area of life from technical guidelines for production processes in a diverse range of industries to specifications for 'making things happen' – such as in the service sector and in systems for the management of e.g. CCTV systems, customer loyalty and even skate parks.

British Standards is the National Standards Body of the UK responsible for facilitating, drafting, publishing and marketing standards and related information products. British Standards provides organizations with leading-edge best practice solutions that represent and support the needs of UK business and society at home and abroad.

With collaborative ventures and a strong national and international profile, British Standards is at the heart of the world of standardization, providing UK industry and other stakeholders with their major access to and influence on standardization, both in the European arena (with CEN, CENELEC and ETSI) and internationally (with ISO and IEC).

The British Standards Institution offers a portfolio of over 25,000 publications and provides expert help with drafting and delivering private company and consortia standards. The institute also provides technical advice on import and export regulations and requirements, as well as running a comprehensive seminar and workshop programme.
