Online: Check Out ANSI Web Site for Information on Standardization

By ALM Staff | Law Journal Newsletters |
August 01, 2003

One way for a manufacturer to ensure it has a proper warning on its product is to “use credible industry groups and trade associations, such as American National Standards Institute, for advice and guidance on labeling.” “Manufacturers Beware: Liability When Warning Labels Are Ignored or Disobeyed,” Product Liability Law & Strategy, July, 2003, Pg. 1.

The Web site for the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is http://www.ansi.org/. It is a private, nonprofit organization (501(c)(3)) that administers and coordinates the U.S. voluntary standardization and conformity assessment system. If you visit the site, you'll find information on consumer affairs, meetings and events, training and education, library Internet resources and career opportunities. ANSI's mission is to enhance both the global competitiveness of U.S. business and the U.S. quality of life by promoting and facilitating voluntary consensus standards and conformity assessment systems, and safeguarding their integrity.
