We are pleased to inform you that the ERCS team has completed another BIS audit for our customer for their product "Aluminium Foil for Food Packaging" in accordance with IS 15392 Scheme - I. As a result, the Bureau of Indian Standards has awarded a BIS license for aluminum foil following IS 15392.


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.


ISI Mark Certification Scheme:


Under this program, the licensee (producer) is required to use or apply a Standard Mark ISI provided by the Bureau of Indian Standards for items created on a manufacturing premises that meet all of the requirements of the applicable Indian Standard(s).


Audited Products :


BIS certification for Aluminium Foil is covered under  IS 15392. This standard prescribes the requirements, method of sampling, and test for Aluminium Foil meant for general purposes. Foil packaging materials have excellent barrier properties that help to protect the product from moisture, light, and oxygen.


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 many BIS departments to aid in assuring the conformance of the product Aluminium Foil to IS 15392.


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:

  •  Manufacturing process.
  •  List of machinery
  •  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 can comply with the legislative and regulatory obligations; such as—

  • Quality Personnel Competence
