The Standards Press of China (SPC)

The Standards Press of China (SPC) is the only publication centre in China that publishes National Standards, Sector Standards, standard compilation books, scientific and technical books, and other books concerned with standardization, quality control and quality supervision.

National Standards can also be accessed at the libraries of the National and Provincial Institutes for Standardization – in general for a fee or free of charge for research purposes. National Compulsory Standards can be downloaded for free from the  SAC website.

Sector Standards are in general owned by the respective ministry or a related industrial association; they can be bought by the publishing house designated by the standardization body in charge. Some better organized publishing houses publish their index on their websites. However, for other bodies the only way to find out what standards exist is to visit the designated publishing house. In general there is no difference in availability of voluntary and compulsory Sector Standards.
