ISO 9000 specifies requirements for a Quality Management System overseeing the production of a product or service. It is not a standard for ensuring a product or service is of quality; rather, it attests to the process of production, and how it will be managed and reviewed. 
 
For ex a few: 
 
ISO 9000:2000 
Quality management systems. Fundamentals and vocabulary  
 
ISO 9000-1:1994 
Quality management and quality assurance standards. Guidelines for selection and use  
 
ISO 9000-2:1997
