According to ICHA, a joint team will coordinate a series of actions “to the many topics related to the revision and elaboration of standards for the Chilean steel segment.”
Sergio Contreras, ICHA’s president, said the agreement will improve the regulation of steel usage in the country, to which the country’s steel segment “needs to have an active participation in the development of new material standards.”
Under the deal, ICHA is the only authorized entity to elaborate a group of rules to the nation’s steel segment in partnership with INN.
The deal takes place immediately and there’s no deadline for the partnership to end.
