The standard IS 14252:2015 outlines the specifications for HDPE/PP woven sacks used for filling sand. This standard ensures that woven sacks made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) meet the required quality and durability standards for effective sand containment.

Manufacturers must ensure that HDPE/PP woven sacks adhere to the specifications outlined in IS 14252:2015. The tape used for these sacks must be crafted from virgin high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) granules. The fabric of HDPE/PP woven sacks must conform to the IS 14252:2015 standard. These sacks should be made from tubular woven fabric and stitched at the bottom with two rows of lock or chain-type stitches. Suitable stitching materials include HDPE/PP tape or other appropriate threads.
