BIS certification for centrifugally cast (spun) iron pipes ensures compliance with Indian Standards like IS 8329:2000 and IS 1536:2001. Manufacturers must establish an in-house testing facility, follow quality control measures, and submit an application via the BIS portal. The process includes factory inspection, product testing at BIS-approved labs, and verification of compliance. Upon approval, a license is granted to use the ISI mark. Regular audits ensure continued adherence. Certification is mandatory for certain products, enhancing quality, safety, and market acceptance. The process typically takes 30–180 days, depending on location and compliance readiness.
