The need of Standardization and the reason behind it in all aspects is to maintain quality and allow an acceptable exchange between users and suppliers of a product. An acceptable exchange is based on the parameters such as price, durability, availability, reliability, etc. Therefore, any country acting as supplier or buyer of resources or products requires to develop or adopt an acceptable Standard that ensures the Quality of supplies. This measure is indeed essential not only for the sake of having own standards and important role in controlling the economy of a country. The result of which can be seen from the stability and growing economy in the developed and developing countries. In contrast, developing countries remain unstable and decline economically, due to lack of quality assurance on their products they export and the absence of compatible standard with others together with the necessary quality control on products imported.
