BIS CERTIFICATION FOR HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE (HDPE) LAMINATED WOVEN LAY FLAT TUBE FOR IRRIGATION PURPOSE IS 16190

Published Date: April 15, 2025 4 min Read

BIS certification is essential for High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Laminated Woven Lay Flat Tubes for Irrigation Purpose as per IS 16190:2014. This standard ensures that lay flat tubes used in irrigation systems are manufactured to strict quality specifications, delivering dependable performance for water conveyance in agricultural fields. Certification under IS 16190:2014 verifies that the product has been tested for crucial attributes such as dimensional consistency, bursting pressure, adhesion of lamination, and tensile strength—parameters that determine the tube's ability to withstand field conditions and ensure uniform water distribution. Adherence to this standard reflects a manufacturer’s dedication to promoting water-efficient irrigation and supporting sustainable agricultural practices.

IS 16190:2014 – HDPE Laminated Woven Lay Flat Tube for Irrigation Purpose

This standard specifies the requirements for HDPE laminated woven lay flat tubes used for irrigation. These tubes are manufactured using woven fabrics laminated with HDPE film to provide strength, flexibility, and resistance to leakage. They are designed to carry water from source to field over long distances with minimal losses. IS 16190:2014 outlines specifications for nominal diameter, wall thickness, mass per unit length, tensile strength, bursting pressure, and bonding quality of the laminated layers. It also includes provisions for visual inspection, workmanship, packaging, and marking for consistency and product traceability.

Benefits of BIS Certification for HDPE Laminated Woven Lay Flat Tubes

BIS certification under IS 16190:2014 assures that lay flat tubes meet performance benchmarks recognized across India. For manufacturers, this certification enhances product credibility, ensures compliance with national agricultural standards, and opens doors to larger markets. For users such as farmers and irrigation contractors, certified tubes offer consistent quality, leak-proof water delivery, and long service life, resulting in improved water-use efficiency and reduced maintenance costs. Certified products support precision irrigation and are a step forward in modernizing India's agricultural infrastructure.
