BIS Certification for HDPE and PP Woven Sacks for Packaging Fertilizers

Published Date: June 17, 2025
2 min Read

HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) and PP (Polypropylene) woven sacks are extensively used for packaging fertilizers due to their durability, strength, and resistance to moisture and chemicals. These woven sacks provide excellent protection for fertilizers, ensuring the contents remain dry and uncontaminated during storage and transportation. Their robust structure prevents tearing and bursting, making them ideal for handling the heavy and often abrasive nature of fertilizer products. Additionally, HDPE and PP woven sacks are lightweight, cost-effective, and recyclable, contributing to both economic and environmental benefits in the agricultural sector.

BIS certification is essential for HDPE and PP woven sacks used for packaging fertilizers to ensure that these sacks meet the stringent quality and safety standards set by the Bureau of Indian Standards. This certification guarantees that the sacks are durable, resistant to environmental factors, and capable of protecting fertilizers from contamination and moisture, thus preserving their quality and efficacy.

Indian Standard IS 9755:2021

According to the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, specifically the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) and PP (Polypropylene) woven sacks used for packaging fertilizers must comply with the Indian Standard IS 9755:2021. This standard ensures that the woven sacks meet the necessary quality and safety criteria to effectively protect fertilizers from environmental factors such as moisture, contamination, and physical damage during storage and transportation.
