BIS CERTIFICATION FOR LAURIC ACID IS 10931:1984

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.

In compliance with the Lauric Acid (Quality Control) Order, 2022, the Bureau of Indian Standards requires mandatory BIS certification for Lauric Acid. This substance must adhere to IS 10931:1984 standards and display the ISI Mark under a Bureau of Indian Standards license, as outlined in Scheme-I of Schedule-II of the Bureau of Indian Standards (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018.

To obtain a BIS certificate for lauric acid, manufacturers must ensure compliance with relevant Indian standards.

Let's delve deeper into IS 10931:1984 concerning lauric acid.

This standard outlines the specifications, sampling procedures, and testing methods for lauric acid. Lauric acid is classified into three grades: Grade 1, Grade 2, and Grade 3.

Lauric acid is derived from lauric acid-rich oils like coconut oil and palm kernel oil through appropriate fractionation of fatty acids. It should be clear, devoid of adulterants, sediments, suspended matter, or other foreign substances when melted. Additionally, trace amounts of C8-C18 fatty acids may be present in lauric acid. Compliance with the standard's specifications is also necessary.

TESTS

The subsequent test must be conducted for Lauric Acid.

PACKING AND MARKING

Packing and labeling procedures must adhere to IS 10931:1984 standards. The material should be packaged in suitable containers, subject to agreement between the buyer and seller. These containers must be securely sealed and labeled with essential details including the material name and grade, net weight, batch or lot number, manufacturing date, manufacturer's name, and trademark. Optionally, the container may also bear the ISI Mark.

To utilize the standard mark (ISI Mark), the manufacturer must secure BIS certification for lauric acid from the Bureau of Indian Standards. This certification is granted after a thorough assessment of manufacturing infrastructure, processes, quality control, and testing capabilities conducted during an on-site visit to the manufacturing premises by BIS.
