A BIS certification license for rubber hoses used in Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) applications is required in India to assure safety and quality. The certification procedure includes determining the appropriate Indian standard, such as IS 9573 (Part 2): 2017, assuring product conformity, and establishing an in-house testing laboratory. Manufacturers must file an application with BIS, present quality control documentation, and undertake factory inspection and product testing at BIS-approved labs. If compliant, the BIS issues the ISI mark, which allows for lawful sales in India. Regular audits assure continuous compliance.
The certification procedure takes about 30 days for Indian firms and 180 days for overseas producers. Adherence to BIS standards helps to avoid legal complications and improves product credibility. For further information, manufacturers can consult certification authorities or visit the BIS website.
