Introduction 

The Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, through the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, issued the Polypropylene (PP) Materials for Moulding and Extrusion (Quality Control) Order, 2024 on February 26, 2024, with an amendment on August 23, 2024. This order mandates that manufacturers of Polypropylene materials obtain BIS certification to ensure compliance with Indian Standard IS 10951:2020. BIS certification is compulsory before products can be marketed in India, as signified by the ISI mark. By requiring adherence to quality and safety standards, this certification safeguards end-users and promotes high-quality products in the polymer industry.

Why is BIS Certification Necessary for Polypropylene (PP) Materials for Moulding and Extrusion? 

BIS certification is crucial for Polypropylene materials used in molding and extrusion, ensuring they meet the quality benchmarks specified in IS 10951:2020. Mandated by the Polypropylene (PP) Materials for Moulding and Extrusion (Quality Control) Order, 2024, and its subsequent amendment, BIS certification upholds product safety and quality across industries. Compliance is enforced under the Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016, with penalties for non-adherence. For manufacturers, BIS certification provides regulatory compliance and market access, while consumers are assured of reliable, high-quality materials, fostering confidence in products available in the Indian market.

Overview of Indian Standard IS 10951:2020 

Indian Standard IS 10951:2020 defines quality and performance criteria for Polypropylene materials intended for molding and extrusion applications. The standard covers critical aspects such as tensile strength, thermal stability, and impact resistance, ensuring the materials’ suitability for various industrial uses. The Quality Control Order of 2024 enforces compliance with this standard, mandating BIS certification for all Polypropylene materials sold in India. By setting stringent quality parameters, IS 10951:2020 enhances the reliability and safety of products manufactured from Polypropylene, thereby supporting a strong foundation for high-quality polymer applications across multiple industries.
