Is BS the same as ISO?

Often, it recognizes the significance of standards set by other organizations and adopts them as its own.

This practice leads to a situation where the equivalent British Standard aligns precisely with the ISO or CEN standard.

This approach ensures consistency and alignment with globally recognized best practices.

The British Standards Institution (BSI) plays a pivotal role in the adoption of international standards.
