BIS gives first licence on all-India basis for 3 products

National standards body BIS today said it has given the first licence on all-India basis for manufacturing fire-resistant cabinets, stainless steel spoons and threaded steel fasteners to three companies. The licence to manufacture fire-resistant cabinets, used for storing ledgers, account books and legal documents, was given to Madhya Pradesh-based firm Methodex Systems Ltd, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) said in a release.



Another licence on all-India basis has been given to Haryana-based firm Shree Shakti Enterprises for manufacturing various types of stainless steel spoons.

BIS has also granted a license to West Bengal-based firm ASP Private Ltd for manufacturing threaded steel fasteners-like step bolts used for steel structures.

"Step bolts are used to gain access to the top of steel structures including transmission towers. As per standard, each bolt shall be supplied with two hexagon nuts. The requirements given in the standard are dimensions and tolerances, mechanical properties and the finish under the general requirements," the release said.

BIS, set up in 1947, carries out standardization activity in India. It develops Indian Standards for various products and goods in the country.
