This International Standard constitutes a guide for carrying out comparative tests of fabric washing products in such a way as to realistically reflect the performance of the products likely to be used by consumers.

It gives details of the variables to be considered, indicating the significance and importance of each of these variables, and provides a basis for the drawing up of adequate comparative test methods which will give a valid estimation of the performance of a fabric washing product when two or more products are compared during the same series of tests.
