High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is known for its strength, durability, and resistance to chemicals and impact, widely used in containers, pipes, and plastic bottles. Compliance with IS 7328:2020 ensures these materials meet crucial specifications for melt flow, tensile strength, impact resistance, and environmental safety, ensuring their reliability and performance across diverse industrial applications.

Introduction

Under the Quality Control Order 2023, the DPIIT has mandated BIS certification for Polyethylene Materials for Moulding and Extrusion in accordance with IS 7328:2020, effective from January 1, 2024. The certification covers three key types of polyethylene—LDPE, LLDPE, and HDPE—ensuring that only certified materials are used in manufacturing processes critical for packaging, pipes, and various other products.

This certification aligns with India's goals of enhancing the consistency, quality, and safety of industrial materials and promoting standardization across the polyethylene production industry.

Why BIS Certification is Necessary for Polyethylene Material for Moulding and Extrusion

BIS certification for Polyethylene Materials under IS 7328:2020 ensures that manufacturers meet essential quality and safety standards. It guarantees material consistency, ensuring uniform performance and reliable processing characteristics. The certification also ensures compliance with safety standards, making the material safe for both industrial and consumer use, while adhering to environmental regulations. It validates the high-quality production of polyethylene, ensuring it meets durability and performance requirements for a range of applications. Additionally, BIS certification enhances market readiness, giving manufacturers the credibility needed to access both domestic and international markets, promoting business growth and customer trust.

Overview of Indian Standard IS 7328:2020

IS 7328:2020 outlines the quality parameters for Polyethylene Materials for Moulding and Extrusion, detailing specific requirements for each type. Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is characterized by its flexible, low-density molecular structure, making it ideal for packaging applications. Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) is defined by its linear structure, providing enhanced strength and resistance to stress, making it suitable for demanding packaging applications. High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) requires a high-density molecular structure, offering excellent durability, chemical resistance, and suitability for industrial applications such as pipes and containers. The standard also specifies essential characteristics such as melt flow index, tensile strength, elongation at break, and other key properties, ensuring consistent quality and performance across all polyethylene types.

Process for BIS Certification for Polyethylene Material for Moulding and Extrusion

1. Application Submission: Manufacturers submit an application form with required documents to BIS.
2. Documentation Review: BIS reviews the submitted documents for compliance with IS 7328:2020.
3. Factory Inspection: BIS officials inspect the manufacturing facility to assess production practices, equipment, and quality control measures.
4. Sample Testing: Product samples are tested in BIS-approved laboratories to verify conformity with the standards for each type of polyethylene (LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE).
5. Certification Grant: After successful inspection and testing, BIS grants certification, allowing the use of the ISI mark on polyethylene materials for moulding and extrusion.
