BIS certification is essential for Flexible Water Storage Tanks for Agriculture and Horticulture Purposes as per IS 17729:2021. This standard ensures that flexible tanks used for storing and supplying water in agricultural and horticultural settings meet stringent quality and safety benchmarks. Certification under IS 17729:2021 confirms that the tanks are designed to perform reliably under varying field conditions, supporting efficient water management and sustainable farming practices.
This standard specifies the requirements for flexible water storage tanks that are used to store and distribute water in agricultural and horticultural operations. These tanks are typically made from coated fabrics or other durable materials that allow them to hold large volumes of water without leaking, degrading, or collapsing. IS 17729:2021 outlines essential performance parameters such as tensile strength, seam strength, leak resistance, UV resistance, bursting strength, and material compatibility. It also includes provisions for visual inspection, dimensional tolerances, marking, packaging, and test methods to ensure consistent quality and operational reliability.
