BIS CERTIFICATION PROCESS INFORMATION for Rubber Hoses and Hose Assemblies for Aircraft Ground Fuelling and Defuelling IS 5797

October 14, 2026 | 4 min Read

The aerospace industry is tapped to engage itself with high-performance parts, ranging from security to efficiency. This also includes rubber hoses and hose assemblies for aircraft ground fuelling and defuelling purposes. IS 5797:2022 (aligned with ISO 1825:2017) lays down the specification and requirement for such mission-critical products. Empanelment with BIS certification by an accredited agency such as ICA is necessary for manufacturers to conform to Indian standards while providing such products in the market. BIS certification ensures that such hoses will stand up to the rigors of safety, performance, and reliability which this industry demands.

Non-compliance with strict standards can invite serious operational hazards, fuel contamination, and other environmental risks.The aviation industry has been growing at a very fast pace and, because of this, it necessitates having certified hoses and hose assemblies, something that will also be highly required in the coming future. Aviation companies and those dealing with ground handling service depend on certified products for compliance and safety. Product End-Uses

  • Ground handling operations for refuelling and defuelling aircraft
  • Commercial and military airports
  • Aviation fuel storage and distribution facilities
     

Overview of IS 5797:2022

IS 5797:2022 (equivalent to ISO 1825:2017) specifies the construction, performance, and testing criteria for rubber hoses and hose assemblies used for aircraft ground fuelling and defuelling operations. The standard ensures that these products are reliable, safe, and suitable for use in aviation environments.
