Introduction

Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certification is mandatory for manufacturers of fire-resistant and antistatic Endless V-Belts, as required by the V-Belt (Quality Control) Order, 2024, issued by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry on 6th March 2024. This certification ensures that the V-belts meet the stringent safety, quality, and performance standards as per Indian Standard IS 2494 (Part 2): 1993. Manufacturers must obtain BIS certification and affix the ISI mark to their products before selling them in the Indian market to avoid legal penalties.

Why is BIS Certification Necessary for Fire-Resistant and Antistatic V-Belts? 

BIS certification is essential for fire-resistant and antistatic V-Belts as it ensures that the products meet India's rigorous safety and quality standards. Under the V-Belt (Quality Control) Order, 2024, compliance with Indian Standard IS 2494 (Part 2): 1993 is mandatory. Certification guarantees that the V-belts offer adequate fire resistance and anti-static properties, ensuring safe use in industrial environments prone to fire hazards and static build-up. Without BIS certification, manufacturers cannot legally sell their products and may face fines, imprisonment, or both.
