American National Standards Institute

New York – October 12, 2026 -- The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has mapped more than 500 published hydrogen standards and concluded that deployment is often held back not by missing standards but by difficulty in implementing and applying them. The finding comes from a new report, "Advancing Hydrogen Standards and Codes," and a companion document, the Hydrogen Standards Landscape.

The report summarizes ANSI's hydrogen standards workshop, held June 22-23, 2026, in Washington, DC. It was the latest activity of the Hydrogen Standards Coordination Initiative. Participants came from industry, government, standards development organizations (SDOs), conformity assessment bodies, research institutions and end-user communities.

New York – October 01, 2026 -- The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and America Makes have launched a searchable online database of additive manufacturing (AM) standards alongside a September 2026 Gaps Progress Report, giving manufacturers and regulators a clearer map of which safety and performance standards exist, which are in development, and where coverage is still missing.

Both tools originate from the Additive Manufacturing Standardization Collaborative (AMSC), a cross-sector body jointly led by ANSI and America Makes, as AM adoption expands into aerospace, medical devices, automotive, and defense applications where parts from different machines and manufacturers must perform consistently.
