Jute bags are a great option for packing up to 30 kg of food grains because of their well-known sustainable and environmentally beneficial qualities. Jute bags are beneficial for food grain packing in a number of ways. Grain containment during storage and transit is guaranteed by their durable and strong design. Because jute is permeable, it promotes appropriate air circulation, which lowers the possibility of moisture accumulation and mold growth a vital component in preserving the freshness and quality of food grains. Additionally, the inherent UV resistance of jute bags shields the contents from damaging sun exposure. This function is particularly helpful in areas where there is a lot of sun exposure.
For producers of jute bags that are used to package up to 30 kg of foodgrains, IS 16372:2015 is essential. By guaranteeing product safety, quality, and adherence to food safety laws, these standards help to maintain food safety and quality during storage and transit. Producers that follow these guidelines may offer dependable and effective jute bag solutions that satisfy the food industry's packaging requirements and advance food safety and sanitation. Food packaging bags are legally required to adhere to certain specified requirements.
Note: In order to package foodgrains up to 30 kg, manufacturers of jute bags are required to get the ISI Mark Certification.
The ISI certification denotes that these bags have passed extensive testing and meet the strict requirements established by the BIS. These requirements are especially designed to assess the bags' strength, durability, and appropriateness for use in foodgrain packaging. It guarantees that foodgrains are efficiently contained and safeguarded by these Jute bags, avoiding contamination, spoiling, and spills while being stored and transported. This accreditation validates the dependability and appropriateness of Jute bags for foodgrain packaging, providing comfort to the agriculture and food distribution industries.
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.
