These high-density polyethylene or polypropylenes (HDPE or PP) woven sacks are steadily becoming the proven choice to contain materials which require sturdy packaging. This is because HDPE or PP woven sacks are extremely pliable but solid and durable and do not quickly deteriorate in quality when wet. The most significant advantage of woven sacks is that they are incredibly robust and reusable. These woven sacks are made using woven and tubular fabric and stitched at the bottom with double lock stitches. The stitches must be made using HDPE PP tapes that conform to requisite IS standards. In this blog, we will discuss more about BIS ISI Certification for Woven Sacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The market is\nflooded with woven sacks from various manufacturers, and the customers are often\nspoilt for choice, given the large number of options to choose from. For a\nproduct to stand out in such a cut-throat market, it is prudent to obtain\ncertifications from national bodies of certifications such as the Bureau of\nIndian Standards or BIS. A certificate from BIS signifies that the product\nmeets exacting levels of quality and safety standards. This makes the manufacturers\nbuild quality products while ensuring the safety of consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title ez-toc-toggle\" style=\"cursor:pointer\">Page Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 eztoc-toggle-hide-by-default' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/bis-isi-certification-for-woven-sacks\/#What_is_the_Bureau_of_Indian_Standards\" >What is the Bureau of Indian Standards?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/bis-isi-certification-for-woven-sacks\/#BIS_Standards_for_Woven_Sacks\" >BIS Standards for Woven Sacks<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/bis-isi-certification-for-woven-sacks\/#Tests_to_Obtain_a_BIS_ISI_Certification_for_Woven_Sacks\" >Tests to Obtain a BIS ISI Certification for Woven\nSacks<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/bis-isi-certification-for-woven-sacks\/#Important_Documents_Required_to_Obtain_a_BIS_ISI_Certification_for_Woven_Sacks\" >Important Documents Required to Obtain a BIS ISI\nCertification for Woven Sacks<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/bis-isi-certification-for-woven-sacks\/#Procedure_to_Follow_to_Obtain_a_BIS_ISI_Certification_for_Woven_Sacks\" >Procedure to Follow to Obtain a BIS ISI Certification\nfor Woven Sacks<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/bis-isi-certification-for-woven-sacks\/#Validity_Period_of_a_BIS_ISI_Certification_for_Woven_Sacks\" >Validity Period of a BIS ISI Certification for Woven\nSacks<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/corpbiz.io\/learning\/bis-isi-certification-for-woven-sacks\/#Conclusion\" >Conclusion<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Bureau_of_Indian_Standards\"><\/span>What is the Bureau of Indian Standards?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bureau of Indian Standards or BIS is a\ncertification authority set up by the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Foods, and\nPublic Distribution under the Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 1986. It was\nestablished with the aim of monitoring products in the Indian market and laying\ndown specific standards based on which the products are assessed and provided\ncertifications. The BIS certificate is a mark of high quality and safe\nproducts. The bureau has laid down norms for the registration of products and\nsubsequent grant of licenses to these products. Some products are only required\nto be registered based on the volition of their manufacturers or importers. However,\nthere are certain products which are required to mandatorily adhere to the\nstandards laid down by BIS and obtain requisite licenses before they can be\npermitted to be sent out for consumer use. After the bureau is satisfied that\nthe product meets the relevant standards laid down by it, it shall grant the manufacturers\na BIS ISI certificate. Manufacturers who have been awarded the BIS ISI\ncertificate are permitted to affix the standard ISI mark on their products,\nwhich helps them stand out from other products in the market as the ISI mark is\noften a symbol of trust, purity, and safety of consumer products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>There are many advantages to acquiring a BIS\ncertificate, and they are as follows:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The\nISI mark symbolizes optimum standards of quality and safety since these\nproducts undergo many tests to check conformity with the BIS standards.<\/li><li>For\nproducts requiring mandatory registration, an ISI mark allows such products to\nbe freely manufactured and deployed in the market.<\/li><li>The\nISI mark is recognized both nationally and globally and thus lends credibility\nand authenticity to the products of the manufacturer&#8217;s brand.<\/li><li>An\nISI mark can be used as a good tool of marketing to attract consumers, propel\nthe goodwill and name of the company over other manufacturers and thus increase\nrevenue.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BIS_Standards_for_Woven_Sacks\"><\/span>BIS Standards for Woven Sacks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various standards which apply to HDPE or PP\nwoven sacks based on the material being packaged in the sacks. The BIS standard\nfor HDPE PP woven sacks for carrying sand is <strong>IS 14252:2015<\/strong>. The BIS standard for packaging sugar for HDPE PP\nwoven sacks is IS 14968:2015. The BIS standard for HDPE PP woven sacks is IS\n14887:2015 for carrying 50 KGs of food grains. The BIS standard for HDPE PP\nwoven sacks for carrying food grains weighing 10 KGs, 15 KGs, 20 KGs, 25 KGs\nand 30 KGs is IS 16208:2015. The manufacturers of HDPE or PP woven sacks must\ncomply with the standards as laid down in the above standards in accordance\nwith the purpose for which the woven sacks are to be used.
