The National European Standards Commission as well as ANSI (U.S.A.) and JISC (Japan), are harmonizing their standards step-by-step with ISO (International Standard Organization). The goal is to improve the comparison of test results and reduce the costs for the present multitude of different testing systems in a growing global market. This brochure is based mainly on International (ISO, EN) and important National Standards (TAPPI, JIS). Zwick Roell-instruments also meet most of the corresponding national standards. The separation of paper-based materials into 6 groups should assist you to easily finding your own area of use and prompt you to take a look at new possibilities.
