Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 24114 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products, Subcommittee SC 15, Coffee.

Introduction
Soluble coffee represents a sizable fraction of international trade. National and supranational regulations on
the ingredients acceptable in soluble coffee, in mixtures thereof, and on their declaration are available.
In order to avoid incorrect declarations that adulterated products are 100 % pure soluble coffee, thus
deceiving the consumers and causing unfair competition between manufacturers, statistically sound criteria for
the authenticity of soluble coffee are necessary, when subsequent official measures are to be applied.
An International Standard defining the appropriate criteria is therefore justified.
