BIS CERTIFICATION FOR Textiles - Composite synthetic fibre ropes IS 14928

Published Date: October 01, 2024

Introduction

Composite synthetic fibre ropes are an important necessity in any sector due to their usage in constructing different, sometimes heavy, structures as in marine and mining sectors, or agricultural purposes. By being composed according to IS 14928:2001, our products ensure strength, durability, and versatility, which generally makes them suitable for all heavy lifting, towing, or securing operations. These ropes are vital during mooring and anchoring within the marine industry. In the construction industry, they are commonly used to support some of the most critical rigging and safety practices, but agricultural activities use them to handle equipment as well as other supplies.

BIS certification of the ropes by the Bureau of Indian Standards assures that ropes meet strict standards of quality and safety and, therefore, improve the reliability of the product and the consumers' confidence in the product. Increased demand for high-performance materials makes BIS-certified composite synthetic fibre ropes relevant for safe and efficient operations within any number of industries.
