ISI / BIS Certification for High-purity primary aluminum ingot for remelting for special applications

Premium-grade aluminum products with remarkable purity and regulated composition are known as high-purity primary aluminum ingots for remelting, which are intended for specific uses. These ingots are mostly utilized as raw materials in specialized sectors where the greatest degree of purity and certain alloy qualities are required. They are made to fulfill strict quality requirements. The aluminum purity of these ingots is manufactured to an exceptionally high degree, frequently surpassing 99.99% aluminum content. It provides outstanding resistance to corrosion, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity.

For producers in the aluminum sector, the IS Standard IS 11890:1987 for high-purity primary aluminum ingot for remelting for specific applications is very important, especially for specialized applications. Strict quality standards for primary aluminum ingots with high purity are outlined in IS 11890:1987. Producers who follow this criteria pledge to provide aluminum that is very pure, consistent, and performs well. By producing high-purity aluminum ingots with few contaminants and impurities, producers can lower the risk of occupational risks by adhering to this standard.

Note: The obligatory ISI Mark Certification must be obtained by producers of high-purity primary aluminum ingots meant for remelting for specific uses.

In order to guarantee that these ingots meet strict technical requirements, safety laws, and quality standards, ISI Certification is a crucial step. This certification ultimately improves the performance and dependability of systems and products that use high-purity aluminum ingots that are remelted and applied. It guarantees the efficiency and excellence of their specialized applications by giving industries like electronics manufacturing, aerospace, and advanced materials research peace of mind that the high-purity aluminum ingots they employ in their processes and products are of the greatest quality.

About ISI / BIS Certification

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.

Process of ISI / BIS Certification

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:

• Regular Procedure
• Simplified Procedure 

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

• Identifying the applicable Indian Standard
• Establishing in-house testing facilities as per the Standard's requirements

Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

• Preparing an Internal Test Report for the product by the relevant Indian Standard
• Compiling all necessary documents
• Completing the Online Application Form
• Online payment of application fees directly to BIS
• Submitting hard copies of the Application Form with all enclosures to the relevant Branch Office (BO) of BIS

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

• Identifying the applicable Indian Standard
• Establishing in-house testing facilities to meet the Standard's requirements

Step 2: Sample Testing

• Obtaining the necessary certificate for raw materials (Material Test Certificate - MTC)
• Conducting product sample testing at a BIS-recognized testing laboratory
