BIS CERTIFICATION FOR ROTATIONAL MOULDED POLYETHYLENE WATER STORAGE TANKS AS PER IS 12701: A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE BY OMEGA QMS PVT LTD

INTRODUCTION

Water storage is a critical aspect of infrastructure development, particularly in regions facing water scarcity or unreliable water supply. Rotational moulded water tanks play a vital role in addressing this need by providing durable and reliable storage solutions. Governed by Indian Standard IS 12701, these tanks undergo stringent quality checks to ensure they meet the necessary standards for safety, durability, and performance.

UNDERSTANDING IS 12701

IS 12701 sets the benchmark for rotational moulded polyethylene water storage tanks in India. It encompasses specifications for raw materials, design, manufacturing process, testing procedures, and marking requirements. Compliance with IS 12701 ensures that water tanks are suitable for storing potable water and resistant to environmental factors such as UV radiation, temperature variations, and chemical corrosion.

IMPORTANCE OF BIS CERTIFICATION

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certification marking for rotational moulded water tanks conforming to IS 12701 is a symbol of quality, safety, and compliance with Indian standards. The BIS certification mark indicates that the water tanks have undergone rigorous testing and verification processes to ensure they meet the specified requirements outlined in IS 12701.
