BIS Updates Quality Standards for Hand Tools
19. December 2024The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has recently introduced an update to the Indian Standard for Hand Tools (Quality Control) Order, 2024. This update is applicable to current license holders, new applicants, manufacturers, importers, and distributors of hand tools and wrenches. Compliance with the updated BIS guidelines ensures that products meet specified quality standards and safety requirements. Hand tools typically require BIS certification to be approved for import and sale in India.
Manufacturers and other stakeholders are encouraged to review the detailed guidelines under the BIS QCO for hand tools and wrenches to ensure full compliance. Obtaining ISI certification for hand tools not only ensures adherence to quality regulations but also enhances market credibility and consumer trust.
