The textile industry is a cornerstone of India’s economy, contributing significantly to GDP, exports, and employment. It accounts for around 2-3% of India’s GDP and provides direct employment to over 45 million people, making it one of the largest job creators.
Agrotextiles are extensively used in agriculture and horticulture for crop protection, efficient water management, and maintaining soil health. They play a vital role in improving farmers’ livelihoods, supporting sustainable development goals, and contributing to the economy. Thus, to ensure the quality of these products, standardization in the field of agrotextiles is crucial.
As the National Standards Body of our country, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality ecosystem in the country. The activities of BIS include standards formulation at National and International level, Conformity Assessment Schemes (Product Certification, Systems Certification, Registration and Hallmarking), Testing and Training. All these activities are carried out through their network of offices at its headquarters, regional and branch offices and labs spread throughout the country.
