Geotextile BIS certification guarantees adherence to Indian quality and safety criteria, therefore ensuring products fit for environmental and infrastructural use. Geotextiles have to satisfy other pertinent criteria as well as IS 13162 (geosynthetics) and IS 16391:2015 (sub-grade separation in pavements). Application submission, manufacturing inspection, product testing in labs certified by BIS, and final approval comprise the procedure. Certification guarantees regulatory compliance, builds market reputation, and lets manufacturers use the ISI mark. Usually 30 days for Indian producers and up to 180 days for overseas applicants, the timing varies. Geotextile sales in India’s infrastructure industry depend on BIS certification.
