The marking standards meet the requirements for common exchange and convention regarding fishing gear materials, promote smooth communication, reduce communication barriers, and facilitate production and trade. The smooth progress of activities such as fishing, research, and other related activities. Netting, netting sheets, ropes, floats, and sinkers belong to five major categories of fishing gear materials, and related products... The industry is enormous, and products are generally processed and sold by different companies. Therefore, it is necessary to develop relevant standards for different sectors to provide support for the development of modern fisheries. Technological support.
