BIS CERTIFICATION FOR MARINE PLYWOOD IS 710:2010
BIS certification is mandatory for marine plywood. Which is renowned for its durability and water resistant properties, making it an important material in industries such as construction and marine applications. Invented by Dutch door manufacturer Cornelius Bruynzeel in the 1930s, marine plywood came to prominence during World War II for boat building. Today, it serves as a versatile wood, used in crafting lasting patio furniture and a variety of outdoor projects such as decks, porches, playhouses and garden benches. Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) plays an important role in this context, offering certification standards IS 710:2010 to ensure the quality and safety of marine plywood.
The Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India, has issued a directive that all marine plywood used in India, whether domestically manufactured or imported from foreign countries, must be licensed under a valid BIS license issued by the Bureau of Indian Standards.
Mandatory inclusion of the Standard Mark is necessary to comply with this Directive. In short, it is now mandatory for all manufacturers of marine plywood, whether in India or abroad, to immediately apply for BIS license and obtain the necessary BIS certification license as an initial step.
