An ISO manufacturer is one that subscribes and adheres to an
international agreement of set standards.

Under ISO 9000 the standards dictate the manufacturing process. This does
not mean it is of high quality, but it is going to be consistent in
quality. There are about 20 criteria addressed by the standards including
design control, purchasing procedures, specifications, process control,
inspection, handling, storage, job training, etc.


OK, I only mentioned the agreement of set standards and no mention of
particular degree of quality. :~) Enoch Root mentioned quality assurance.
