In this competitive scenario, it isn't easy to survive in the market without a standard quality and certified product. BIS license may also be required to sell products in the Indian market.

To get BIS certification and produce a standard quality product, the manufacturer must ensure that their product must follow the specified Indian standard.

Let's take a closer look at IS 14900:2018 for transparent float glass.

Transparent float glasses are covered under IS 14900:2018. The Bureau of Indian Standards adopted this Indian Standard after the Glassware Sectional Committee's final draught was approved by the Chemical Division Council.

This standard specifies the specifications and the sample and testing methods for flat, transparent, clear float glass with glossy, plain, and smooth surfaces. This standard covers cut sizes or stock sheets that are square, rectangular, or other shapes. This standard does not apply to tinted, coated, frosted, heat-absorbing, or low-light-reducing glasses.

Float glass shall be made by allowing glass from a tank furnace to flow through a bath of molten tin in a regulated environment of nitrogen and hydrogen, resulting in a transparent glass sheet with flat and parallel surfaces for clear, undistorted vision and reflection. Glass thickness shall be measured in line with Annex A. On cut sizes, the length and width of the glass must be measured in accordance with Annex B of the standard. The thickness tolerances must be as defined in the standard. The length and width tolerances on cut sizes must be as specified in the standard.
