BIS Certification for Particle boards of wood and other lignocellulosic materials (medium density) for general purpose IS 3087:2005

isi product

As per IS 3087:2005, BIS certification is mandatory for medium-density particle boards made from wood and other lignocellulosic materials for general purposes. Medium-density particle boards, known for their affordability and versatility, are widely used in building construction, furniture production and interior design for a variety of general purpose applications. Consisting of wood and other lignocellulosic components, these boards provide stability, uniformity and a smooth surface, making them suitable for projects ranging from cabinets and shelves to interior wall panels and furniture parts.

The IS standard IS 3087:2005 is important for producers in the woodworking and construction sectors, which provides specifications for medium-density particle boards with specific gravity between 0.5 and 0.9 for general use. This standard ensures that particle boards comply with specific quality standards and technical specifications outlined in IS 3087:2005. Manufacturers who follow these guidelines can guarantee consistently high quality of their products, which is essential for consumer satisfaction and confidence.
