ÖNORM

An ÖNORM standard is a national standard published by the Austrian Standards Institute. ÖNORMs are voluntary standards drawn up in committees of the Austrian Standards Institute.
They are either developed upon the initiative of stakeholders or taken over as national standards within the framework of European and international standardization (e.g. CEN/CENELEC, ISO/IEC).
ÖNORM standards are issued by the Austrian Standards Institute.
