Specialized tubular materials known as laminated weave lay flat tubes made of high density polyethylene (HDPE) are employed in a wide range of industrial, construction, and agricultural applications. The HDPE plastic used to make these tubes is renowned for its strength and durability. Woven fabric is used to strengthen the tubes to increase their resistance. They are simply unrolled for usage and then flattened for storage because to their "lay flat" design. In addition to offering more protection, lamination can strengthen a material's resilience to several environmental elements.
The adaptable and long-lasting High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) laminated weave lie flat irrigation tubes are used to effectively convey water to agricultural areas, guaranteeing adequate hydration for crops. These tubes are used to distribute water in a number of irrigation techniques, including as sprinkler irrigation, drip irrigation, and micro irrigation. They are a vital part of irrigation systems in both small- and large-scale farming operations because of their affordability, versatility, and durability. The importance of these tubes in irrigation is growing as sustainable agricultural methods become more popular and water supplies become more limited.
Under IS 16190: 2014, all high-density polyethylene (HDPE) laminated woven lay-flat tubes for irrigation are now required to be part of the ISI Certification Scheme.
For irrigation applications, this standard specifies constructional and additional criteria for lay flat tubes made of laminated high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The supply lines of agricultural pump sets, which may be exposed to the elements and direct sunlight, make use of these lay-flat tubes.
Without the ISI Mark, this product cannot be marketed, imported, or exported into the Indian consumer market.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
