The beginning of the school year is one of the most important milestones in our Palestinian society, as well as around the world. For this reason, our institution has once again placed special emphasis on school students, as it does every year. The media team has prepared a series of publications dedicated to this important period, which include the following:

"High temperatures spoil your food... Avoid buying food products displayed under direct sunlight."

Avoid leaving spare batteries (power banks) inside the vehicle in hot weather

The Palestinian Standards and Metrology Organization urges you to avoid pouring ready-mixed concrete in hot weather where the temperature exceeds 35°C, unless appropriate measures are taken to ensure that the temperature of the poured concrete does not exceed 40°C. Factories bear full responsibility for failing to comply with this requirement.

"Benefits of Obtaining the Institution's Marks"

The Palestinian Standards and Metrology Institution has launched an awareness campaign aimed at guiding consumers to choose national products bearing the quality and conformity marks issued by the Institution. The campaign seeks to strengthen citizens’ confidence in local products by highlighting the importance of these marks and their role in ensuring product quality and safety. It also emphasizes the consumer’s role in supporting the national economy by preferring certified products, thereby contributing to the growth of local industry.

The Palestinian Standards and Metrology Institution has launched an awareness campaign aimed at raising public knowledge about the importance of adhering to safety instructions related to food contact products such as cookware, packaging containers, and plastic utensils. The campaign highlights the necessary standards these products must meet to prevent harmful substances from leaching into food, thereby protecting consumer health. It also encourages consumers to check for certification marks indicating compliance with approved specifications to ensure the products are used safely and meet the highest quality standards.

The Palestinian Standards and Metrology Institution has launched a comprehensive awareness campaign aimed at raising public awareness about the importance of choosing tires that meet the required standards to ensure public safety. The campaign included the dissemination of guidelines on how to inspect tires, determine their lifespan, and understand the factors affecting their performance. This effort aims to reduce traffic accidents caused by the use of non-compliant tires. This initiative is part of the Institution’s ongoing efforts to guarantee the quality of products available in the market and to promote a culture of safety among citizens.

The Palestinian Standards and Metrology Institution has launched an awareness campaign aimed at informing citizens about the importance of calibration stickers on fuel station pumps. These stickers ensure the accuracy of dispensed fuel quantities and confirm compliance with approved standards. The campaign seeks to strengthen consumer confidence in fuel stations by educating the public on how to verify the presence of official calibration labels and understand their role in promoting fairness and transparency in fuel transactions. This initiative is part of the Institution’s ongoing efforts to protect consumer rights and ensure the quality of services provided in accordance with national specifications.

The Palestinian Standards and Metrology Institution joins the Palestinian people in celebrating the olive harvest season — a cherished tradition that brings families together. This year, the Institution launched an awareness campaign that included a series of informative publications covering all stages of the season, from harvesting to pressing and storage. Given the historical and cultural significance of olive oil to the Palestinian people, we have made it a priority to educate citizens on essential practices that ensure the production of high-quality olive oil.

Protecting national products is one of the cornerstones of developing industrial production and promoting a culture of supporting local goods. It also involves the formulation of laws and regulations aimed at creating a significant shift in the industrial sector by removing obstacles that hinder the success of local products. The Palestinian Standards and Metrology Institution plays a key role in this effort by establishing a legislative framework that safeguards national products. Just like national laws, these frameworks contribute significantly to encouraging local industry to produce goods that meet standards, enabling Palestinian industries to compete effectively. Accordingly, the Institution launched an awareness campaign to support and promote national products — especially in light of the current circumstances the country is facing. Such efforts have a direct impact on increasing the market share of local products, particularly as the boycott of occupation goods intensifies. This also enhances the competitiveness of national products in both local and regional markets.
