BIS CERTIFICATION FOR GLASS FIBRE REINFORCED GYPSUM PANELS IS 17400: 2021

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.

Let's delve deeper into at IS 17400: 2021 For Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum Panels.

Glass fiber reinforced gypsum (GFRG) panels combine the lightweight properties of gypsum with the strength of glass fibers, offering a versatile construction material. These panels are used for various applications such as wrapping, false ceilings, and wall partitions. GFRG panels are known for their cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, and fire resistance, making them a superior choice over traditional construction materials.

GFRG panels are made by integrating glass fibers into a gypsum matrix, resulting in composite materials that are stronger and more durable. To ensure their safety and quality, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has established the IS 17400:2021 standard. This standard outlines the requirements and specifications for GFRG panels, ensuring they meet the necessary criteria for building projects.

Tests

The certification process for Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum Panels involves a series of tests to evaluate their various properties. These tests include:

Flexural Strength Test
Impact Resistance Test
Water Absorption Test
Moisture Content Test
Dimensional Stability Test
Surface Hardness Test
Thermal Conductivity Test
Fire Resistance Test
Sound Insulation Test
Chemical Resistance Test

The BIS certification for Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG) panels under IS 17400:2021 marks a significant step in ensuring the quality and safety of construction materials in India. This standard is designed to provide assurance regarding the performance and durability of GFRG panels. It also streamlines the manufacturing process by setting clear specifications and standards.

GFRG panels offer numerous benefits for building projects, including fire resistance, lightweight construction, and easy installation. With the adoption of IS 17400:2021, builders and contractors can confidently use GFRG panels, knowing they meet BIS quality standards.
