Standarditazion is developed by 57 UNI commissions and 14 independent
associated bodies to which specific sectors are delegated.
Every year about 6.500 experts representing all interested parties (industry,
trade, users, consumers, public administration, testing laboratories,
research institutes…) take part in standardization works.
In most recent years standards production averaged about 1.300 documents
per year and at 31.12.2004 valid UNI standards were about 15.300.
Beside standardization, UNI works in the following fields:
- publishing (books, CD-ROMs, website www.uni.com, the monthly magazine
"U&C" and the newsletter "UNInotizie")
- training
- international activity (representing Italy at CEN and ISO level; managing
cooperation and technical assistance projects with other european and
non-european NSBs).
UNI is a non-profit organization. Its main sources of income are:
- sales from publications
- membership fees
- public funding dedicated to specific technical activities.
UNI operating structure is made of 114 employees (working in Milano headquarters
and Rome branch office) and 16 "UNI Points" located in the main
towns all around Italy. UNI Points are managed by indipendent entities
and they work as information centers and distribute UNI standards and
other publications.
