This standard specifies the requirements for woven ground covers made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) tape yarns. These covers are primarily used in horticulture to suppress weed growth, control soil erosion, manage water seepage, and regulate temperature around plant roots. The standard outlines requirements related to physical and mechanical properties such as mass per unit area, tensile and tear strength, color fastness, UV resistance, and permeability. It also includes specifications for visual inspection, packaging, and marking to ensure consistency, traceability, and proper identification of the product.

BIS certification under IS 16202:2014 ensures that woven ground covers are manufactured according to nationally recognized quality parameters. For manufacturers, this certification enhances credibility, boosts consumer confidence, and facilitates wider market access. For end-users such as farmers, nurseries, and greenhouse operators, certified ground covers deliver reliable performance, lower maintenance costs, and improved crop management efficiency. By minimizing weed growth and enhancing soil health, certified products contribute to more sustainable and resource-efficient horticultural practices.
