British StandardsBritish StandardsBritish Standards are the accepted way we apply standards to work in the industrial and commercial world.

British Standards reduce any faults or confusion that could be made when developing design based work and ensure that people can communicate clearly with each other.

It is a technical language that professional people become accustomed to using.

Sometimes the work is stamped with the Kitemark.
