IRIS: International Repair Information System
In 1994, the EACEM (European Association for Consumer Electronics Manufacturers) started activities via the EASSC (European After-Sales Service Committee) to promote a universal coding system, called IRIS, and a common Warranty claim form throughout Europe. An official Recommendation was issued in 1995.
DIGITALEUROPE members actively update and manage the IRIS Repair Coding System.
