BIS CERTIFICATION FOR HDPE PP WOVEN SACKS FOR FOOD GRAINS IS 16208:2015

In today's competitive landscape, maintaining market presence without a certified, high-quality product can be challenging. Obtaining a BIS license may also be essential for selling products in the Indian market. To achieve BIS certification and ensure product quality, manufacturers must adhere to the specified Indian standards.

Lets delve deeper into IS 16208:2015 for HDPE/PP Woven sacks for packaging food grains.

HDPE/PP woven sacks designed for packaging food grains ranging from 10 kg to 30 kg are governed by IS 16208:2015. This standard outlines the requisites for HDPE/PP woven sacks tailored for packaging various food grains, including rice, wheat, pulses, millet, and similar grains.

According to the material specifications of HDPE or PP, there will be two categories for weaved sacks:

Group 1: HDPE woven sacks

Group 2: PP woven sacks

The sacks must comply with the standards outlined. The high-density polyethylene or polypropylene utilized for the tape must meet the requirements specified in either IS 10146 or IS 10910. Additionally, the tape should be manufactured from virgin granules of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP).

The fabric employed in HDPE/PP woven sacks must adhere to the guidelines outlined in IS 16208:2015. These sacks are crafted from tubular woven fabric and require stitching at the bottom using two rows of lock or chain-type stitches. HDPE/PP tape or another thread suitable for the purpose should be utilized for stitching.

TESTS

The subsequent test must be conducted for HDPE/PP woven sacks for packing food grains.

Dimensional test
Breaking strength test
Mass of bale
Ash content and some others test

A properly maintained laboratory is essential for conducting various tests in accordance with the methods specified in the standard.

Printing, packing, and marking on the sacks and bales must adhere to the prescribed standards. Additionally, each sack may bear a standard mark (ISI Mark). Manufacturers are required to obtain a BIS license from the Bureau of Indian Standards to utilize the standard mark (ISI Mark). This license is granted upon a successful evaluation of manufacturing infrastructure, quality control, testing capabilities, and production processes.
