Compared to regular Portland cement, Super Sulphated Cement (SSC) has a larger amount of calcium sulphate, which is typically gypsum. Specialized construction applications can benefit from its remarkable resistance to chemical assaults and harsh environments. A particular mixture of clinker, gypsum, and additional ingredients, such as granulated blast furnace slag or natural pozzolans, are interground to create super sulphated cement. Because of its special composition, cement is more resistant to chloride penetration, alkali-silica reactions, and sulphate attacks.
Super Sulphated Cement's resilience in challenging circumstances is one of its main benefits. This makes it the perfect material for construction projects where hostile chemical environments are present, like industrial facilities, wastewater treatment plants, and maritime structures. Super sulfate cement is made in an environmentally responsible and simple manner. It produces little CO2 emissions and uses very little energy.
Its low total heat generation throughout the hydration process is one of its noteworthy qualities. Because of this, it works especially well for building massive projects like dams and mass concrete structures.
According to IS 6909: 1990, all super sulphated cement is required to be a part of the ISI Certification Scheme.
Without the ISI Mark, this product cannot be marketed, imported, or exported into the Indian consumer market.
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.

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
