The standardisation work produced in 2023 by the Cyprus Standards Organisation (CYS) can be effortlessly described as multifaceted and substantial. Responding to the needs of the modern society and making maximum use of its very remarkable and fully trained human resources, it offered valuable deliverables through collective work with local experts in a spirit of consensus, in the well-meaning interest of society.
Among a multitude of standardization actions that serve the strategic aims and objectives of CYS, in 2023 we have singled out and noted the following 10 actions, product of the National Technical Standardization Committees.
[*]The Greek translation was completed and the European Standard for the services offered by professional aestheticians was adopted. [*]Promoted and promoted the National Standard for Lychee Woven Textiles. [*]Work is being carried out to examine the possibility of using recyclable materials from excavation, construction and demolition. [*]A technical specification for the colouring of plastic pipes is being drawn up. [*]A standard for circular plastic products is being prepared. [*]Standardisation work on climate neutrality is being promoted. [*]A national annex on concrete pipes is being completed. [*]New standardisation effort to develop standards related to mountaineering and hiking trails. [*]Preparation in the context of the upcoming 2nd generation of Eurocodes. [*] The British Standard BS7671 for electrical installations is translated into Greek.
Warm thanks and credit are given to dozens of volunteer experts from businesses, government agencies, NGOs, academics, scientists-engineers of all disciplines etc, who work with dedication together with the competent officials of the Agency to carry out this work that promotes quality in products, services, the economy and society in general.
The effort will continue unabated and with more enthusiasm and intensity in 2024 to complete the above and to take on new standardization challenges to meet modern needs of society.
