What is BIS?
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is India's national standards body, functioning under the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food, and Public Distribution, Government of India. BIS specializes in product standardization, certification, and testing.
FMCS Scheme
The BIS Act of 2016 and the Bureau of Indian Standards (Conformity Assessment) Regulations of 2018 establish the Foreign Manufacturer Certification Scheme, which grants a BIS license to a foreign manufacturer. The license is awarded for goods that meet relevant Indian Standards.
Audited Products :
IS 12823: 2015 covers pre-laminated particle boards made from wood and other lignocellulosic materials. This standard specifies the requirements, sampling method, and test for Pre-Laminated Particle Boards from Wood and Other Lignocellulosic Materials intended for general use, such as providing a less expensive alternative to solid wood, making them suitable for a wide range of projects such as furniture, cabinets, and interior design. They are less susceptible to cracking, warping, and splitting than solid wood, resulting in higher dimensional stability.
Suggestions to Manufacturers :
To achieve BIS certification and produce a standard quality product, the producer must verify that their product meets the stated Indian Standard Specifications (ISS), which we have directly interpreted to you from BIS authorities in accordance with Indian Standards.
All producers must get a BIS license from the Bureau of Indian Standards in order to sell their products in India and use the standard ISI mark.
ERCS Pvt. Ltd. has established a large network within the industry and several BIS departments to aid in assuring conformance of the product Pre-Laminated Particle Boards from Wood and Other Lignocellulosic Material with IS 12823: 2015.
About BIS Auditing Process :
The BIS officer inspects the factory as part of the BIS certification procedure. To get satisfactory results, the BIS inspection should run easily and without any non-conformities.
BIS audits several management system certification systems in collaboration with external auditors. Auditors are appointed based on their qualifications, professional experience, and audit training, as well as their competence.
In the process of audit, auditors verify the following information along with other technicalities :
1. Does the organization have a reliable system for recognizing and updating legal and regulatory requirements, such as:
i. Manufacturing process.
ii. List of machinery
iii. Testing equipment
2. Whether the organization has discovered and kept the relevant legislative and regulatory obligations up to date.
3. Whether businesses are using these regulatory requirements as process inputs and monitoring process outputs for compliance, such as
- Samples are tested at the plant according to the applicable Indian standards.
- Seal samples for independent testing at a BIS-recognized laboratory
4. Whether the company has the capacity to comply with the legislative and regulatory obligations; such as—
- Quality Personnel Competence
