CECIP Cooperation with International Industry Federations
Metrology - especially Legal Metrology- is increasingly becoming an international issue with greater and greater influence on both national and European requirements. International trade and globalization require harmonization in regulations and rules on a wide international basis. CECIP has consequently started cooperation with other industry federations in the world. These Federations may be from the weighing industry outside Europe or other measuring instruments’ federations in Europe. The aim is to inform each other, to harmonize views, represent each other on international committees like OIML (International Organization of Legal Metrology) and WELMEC (European Cooperation in Legal Metrology) or in discussions with the European Commission.
