AREA MEASUREMENT
ICT has also established a Code of Practise on Area Measurement, which has effectively been formalised as an essentially identical ISO standard (ISO 11646 1993), and this forms a fundamental element of buying and selling leather. Click on the attached link for a copy:

ICT and ICHSLTA also regularly approve a list of suitable measuring institutes to carry out independent checking in the case of disputes. These include BLC Leather Technology Center ltd - contact:
