Standards help Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) to increase productivity and reach wider markets. CEN (the European Committee for Standardization) and CENELEC (the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) provide information, tools and support to explain the benefits of standards, how to use them and how to participate in the process of developing standards.

You can get a better understanding of standards, how you can use them to benefit your business, and how you can contribute to the development of standards.
