BIS Consultant for Stainless Steel Products
If you manufacture, sell, or import stainless steel products in India, BIS certification is mandatory under the Quality Control Orders (QCOs) issued by the Ministry of Steel. The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) ensures that all products adhere to the required safety, quality, and performance standards before entering the Indian market. Er. P.K. Jain Consultants offers full-service support for businesses needing BIS certification for stainless steel items, ensuring a smooth and successful certification process.
What Is BIS Certification for Stainless Steel?
BIS certification is a compliance mark regulated by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). For stainless steel products used in construction, domestic, industrial, and utility applications, certification under specific Indian Standards is legally mandatory.
The following Indian Standards are applicable based on the type of stainless steel product:
- IS 6911: Stainless Steel Plate, Sheet and Strip
- IS 5522: Stainless Steel Sheets and Strips for Utensils
- IS 6913: Cold Rolled Stainless Steel Sheets and Coils
- S 17875: Stainless Steel Wires
Manufacturers, importers, and traders must ensure that each stainless steel product type complies with its respective IS code to avoid regulatory issues and ensure product quality.

Whether your product is a pipe, tube, sheet, or household utensil, it likely falls under the mandatory certification regime.
