big, fixed-end mild steel drums are a particular kind of industrial container or drum that is made of mild steel, has a fixed or permanently sealed end, and is big in size. These barrels are essential to many businesses because they offer safe options for material transportation and storage. The use of mild steel as the building material guarantees adaptability and longevity for a variety of uses.
The ability of mild steel barrels with fixed ends to preserve the safety and integrity of materials over the course of their lifespan in many industrial processes makes them essential.
Under IS 1783 (Part 2): 2014, all large, fixed-end drums classified as category B are now required to be part of the ISI Certification Scheme.

Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.
