IS 302 Part 1:2024 specifies the requirements for safety for household, commercial, and similar electrical appliances: clothes dryers, including clothes drying cabinets and towel rails. Clothes dryers are crucial for removing moisture from clothes and towel drying in a home or office for convenience and hygiene. The market for clothes dryers and towel rails will rise as there is a growing need for modern home appliances in India. It gives ample opportunities for import and export of the products.
Manufacturers and distributors who wish to succeed in this area should understand the market strength. These appliances sell only if a BIS certification, including the mark ISI, is put on them. Additionally, they are supposed to meet the QCO Order. Fees for BIS Certification vary based on type. One needs to get a BIS certificate to have a smooth customs clearance and further licensing for the quality and safety of consumer products.
