PHILADELPHIA, June 19 PRNewswire — Thomson Reuters, the world's leading source of intelligent information for business and professionals, has partnered with Intertek, one of the world's largest independent testing, inspection and certification companies, to launch a new online standards store at www.intertek-standards.com and www.intertek-etlsemko.com. This new store is supported by Techstreet (www.techstreet.com), and offers a wide range of industry codes and standards to ensure safety, quality and compliance in manufactured products. Product testing and certification customers also can receive updates on standards via custom email alerts.

"It is more critical than ever for manufacturers and retailers to have the most current standards for their products," said David Brown, Executive Vice President, Corporate Markets for the Scientific business of Thomson Reuters. "Using the proven e-commerce methods from Techstreet, this store is speeding the delivery of such standards to the organizations who want to get their products to market faster."

Visitors to the Intertek Standards Store can search, order and download industry codes, standards and technical information from over 350 of the world's leading standards developing organizations, including ANSI, API, UL, ASQ, ASME, ASTM, AWS, BSI, CSA, DIN, IEC, IEEE, ISO, NFPA, MIL Specs, and others. Customers can purchase single copies in print or PDF format, and receive 10% off Techstreet prices. They can also get company-wide multi-user access to a custom set of documents.

Additionally, customers will benefit from the self-serve functionality, electronic download options, free tracking alert service and enterprise subscriptions offerings. Further, Intertek clients already using MyTestCentral, a web-based management system for product testing and certification, will receive proactive standards updates, which they can use to schedule product testing and compliance audits.
