HDPE/PP Woven Sacks for Packaging of 50 kg Cement IS 11652:2017

PP/HDPE woven sacks are extensively used for packaging 50 kg cement due to their high strength, durability, and resistance to wear and tear. These sacks are designed to handle the heavy weight and abrasive nature of cement, ensuring that the contents remain secure and intact during transportation and storage. The woven structure provides exceptional tensile strength, while the laminated surface offers protection against moisture, preventing cement from clumping or deteriorating. Additionally, these sacks are lightweight and cost-effective, making them an efficient choice for cement manufacturers looking to optimize logistics and reduce packaging costs. Their recyclability also adds an environmental benefit, aligning with sustainable practices in the construction industry.

BIS certification is necessary for woven sacks used for packaging 50 kg cement to ensure they meet the stringent quality and safety standards set by the Bureau of Indian Standards. This certification guarantees that the sacks are durable, strong, and resistant to environmental factors such as moisture and physical damage, which is crucial for protecting the cement during storage and transportation. By adhering to BIS standards, manufacturers ensure uniformity and reliability in their products, enhancing operational efficiency and maintaining the integrity of the cement. This not only safeguards the product but also fosters consumer trust and compliance with regulatory requirements in the construction industry.

Indian Standard IS 11652:2017

According to the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, specifically the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, HDPE/PP woven sacks used for packaging 50 kg cement must comply with the Indian Standard IS 11652:2017. This standard ensures that these woven sacks meet the essential quality and safety criteria necessary to protect cement from environmental factors such as moisture, dust, and physical damage during storage and transportation. Adhering to IS 11652:2017 guarantees that the sacks are durable, strong, and reliable, maintaining the integrity and efficacy of the cement. Compliance with this standard is critical for manufacturers to ensure regulatory alignment, product consistency, and consumer trust, thereby supporting optimal performance and reliability in the construction industry.
