ISI / BIS Certification for Oil pressure stoves

Oil pressure stoves, sometimes referred to as pressure stoves or oil stoves, are portable cooking appliances that generate a regulated and effective flame for cooking by using pressurized liquid fuel. These stoves are often utilized in outdoor environments, like camping, hiking, picnics, and emergency situations where access to traditional cooking techniques is restricted. Their value comes from their capacity to offer practical and efficient cooking solutions in a variety of contexts and situations, guaranteeing that consumers may still enjoy hot meals and drinks even when they are outside of conventional kitchens.

When using these stoves, users should adhere to the safety regulations and guidelines to guarantee safe operation.

Under IS standard IS 1342: 2019, all oil pressure stoves are now covered by the required ISI Certification Scheme. 

Without the ISI Mark, this product cannot be marketed, imported, or exported into the Indian consumer market.

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

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
