Abstract
The main objective of ISO/TC 261 is to standardise the processes of additive manufacturing, the process chains (Data, Materials, Processes, Hard- and Software, Applications), test procedures, quality parameters, supply agreements, environment, health and safety, fundamentals and vocabularies. This section provides readers with news regarding standardisation efforts of ISO/TC 261. Further up-to-date information regarding recently published documents, such as new standards and revised standards, the status of standards can be found in the ISO/TC261 webpages: https://www.iso.org/committee/629086.html and the committee webpages: https://committee.iso.org/sites/tc261/home/news.html.

Acknowledging the interest of the members of ISO/TC 261/WG 6 for aspects related to the Life Cycle Assessment of AM products, equipment, operations, product use and end-of-life, decides to establish a liaison to ISO/TC 207/SC 5 “Life Cycle Assessment” to ensure a fruitful exchange of information, to efficiently coordinate the work between ISO/TC 261 and ISO/TC 207/SC 5 to avoid overlaps in the work.
