It also provides implications for contemporary standardisation in the logistics systems and other industries. This study contributes to the understanding of the complexities in standards setting at the international level through the lens of competition and cooperation among major countries participating in the ISO. In addition, this study analyses why different outcomes were derived in comparison with ISO containers, which is assessed as an international standard that has well-harmonised and modularised dimensions. This paper traces the process of standards setting in the ISO and examines the internal dynamics between major actors in the ISO Technical Committee to find out why and how multiple pallet sizes were adopted. The focus of this study is on the international standardisation of pallet sizes in the ISO. The multiplicity of pallet sizes in one standard reflects a failure of standards setting. Standards setting at the international level, in the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), created six pallet sizes (ISO 6780). recommendations in the ISO Standards listed below. Pallets are platforms used for materials handling in logistics. This Singapore Standard was approved by the Special Technical Committee for.
