UNI in Europe and in the world
The world economy needs shared standards to support trade, consumers, occupational safety, the environment and technological innovation.

Our task is to:
- Propose issues in the national reality and guide its standardisation work
- Share Italian technical experiences
- Adapt European (EN) and international (ISO) standards to the Italian reality
- Consolidate the leadership role on the technical-normative level
