BIS Certification for Aluminium Foil for Food Packaging IS 15392:2003 - Hind Cares Global Limited, Roop Nagar Industrial Area, Loni Dehat, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh | Standphill India

Standphill India successfully completed BIS ISI Mark certification under IS 15392:2003 for Hind Cares Global Limited - an aluminium foil manufacturer for food packaging based at C-24 and C-25, Roop Nagar Industrial Area, Loni Dehat, Pavi Sadakpur, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh 201102. The BIS license bearing number 870018**** was officially granted on November 22, 2024. Standphill India managed the complete certification process from factory assessment to final license grant.

Hind Cares Global Limited is an aluminium and aluminium alloy bare foil manufacturer for food packaging applications, based at the Roop Nagar Industrial Area in Loni Dehat - a well-established industrial locality in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, within the 201102 pin code zone. Ghaziabad sits at the eastern edge of Delhi NCR, directly bordering Delhi, and is one of India's most active manufacturing districts - home to a dense concentration of packaging, pharmaceutical, food processing, and industrial manufacturers who serve markets across NCR and the broader North Indian supply chain.

Loni Dehat's industrial areas - including Roop Nagar - have developed as a cost-competitive manufacturing zone within striking distance of Delhi's massive food processing, pharmaceutical, and FMCG industries, all of which are among the largest consumers of aluminium foil packaging in India.

Aluminium foil for food packaging is a food-contact material - one of the most directly safety-critical categories in the packaging industry. Foil that comes into contact with food must meet defined standards for purity, chemical composition, surface quality, mechanical performance, and freedom from harmful substances. A substandard aluminium foil used in food packaging - one with excessive heavy metal contamination, inadequate corrosion resistance, poor mechanical integrity, or surface defects - can compromise food safety, reduce shelf life, and expose consumers to chemical hazards through direct food contact. This is why IS 15392:2003 BIS certification is mandatory - it is the independent quality and safety verification that every piece of aluminium foil used in Indian food packaging must pass before reaching the market.

Hind Cares Global Limited's BIS certification under IS 15392:2003 - granted November 22, 2024 - positions the company as a fully compliant supplier to India's food processing, pharmaceutical, dairy, confectionery, and FMCG packaging industries, all of which specify BIS-certified aluminium foil as a mandatory procurement condition.

IS 15392:2003 is the Bureau of Indian Standards specification for aluminium and aluminium alloy bare foil used in food packaging applications — covering the chemical composition, dimensional, mechanical, surface quality, and food safety requirements that aluminium foil must satisfy to be lawfully manufactured and supplied for food contact use in India.

BIS certification under IS 15392:2003 is mandatory for aluminium foil manufacturers supplying the food packaging market. Food processors, pharmaceutical manufacturers, dairy producers, confectionery companies, and FMCG packagers specify BIS-certified IS 15392:2003 aluminium foil as a standard procurement requirement — and regulatory compliance for food-contact packaging materials in India directly references BIS certification.

Key requirements under IS 15392:2003 include:

Chemical Composition

Defined alloy composition limits for aluminium and aluminium alloy foil — specifying maximum permissible levels of alloying elements and impurities. The chemical composition of the foil directly determines its corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, formability, and food safety performance. IS 15392 defines composition limits for each alloy designation covered under the standard.

Thickness and Dimensional Tolerances

Specified nominal thickness ranges and dimensional tolerances for the finished foil — ensuring consistent foil thickness that delivers predictable barrier performance, mechanical integrity, and converting behaviour on food packaging lines. Thickness variation outside defined tolerances compromises both packaging line performance and barrier consistency in the finished package.

Mechanical Properties

Tensile strength and elongation requirements for the aluminium foil — ensuring adequate mechanical performance for handling, converting, and end-use packaging applications. Foil that tears prematurely during packaging operations or in consumer use fails to protect the food product it is specified for.

Surface Quality

Defined limits on surface defects — including pinholes, cracks, scratches, roll marks, and inclusions — that affect both the barrier performance and food safety of the foil. Pinholes in food packaging foil allow oxygen and moisture ingress that reduces food shelf life and enables microbial contamination.

Pinhole Count

Maximum pinhole count per unit area — a critical food packaging performance parameter. Pinholes are inherent in thin aluminium foil but must be controlled within defined limits to ensure adequate barrier performance for the food packaging application. IS 15392 specifies maximum pinhole counts for each thickness range.

Corrosion Resistance

Resistance to corrosion under defined test conditions — ensuring the foil maintains integrity and does not generate corrosion products during contact with food, particularly acidic food products.

Freedom from Harmful Substances

Requirements ensuring the foil surface is free from lubricants, rolling oils, and chemical residues above defined limits that could migrate into food during packaging and storage.

Marking Requirements

Alloy designation, temper, nominal thickness, width, length or mass of coil, manufacturer identification, IS 15392 reference, and ISI Mark must be clearly and permanently marked on every certified consignment.

Hind Cares Global Limited - based at Roop Nagar Industrial Area, Loni Dehat, Ghaziabad - is certified. Their aluminium foil carries the ISI Mark under IS 15392:2003. They are legally compliant and commercially qualified to supply every food processor, pharmaceutical manufacturer, dairy producer, confectionery company, and FMCG packager that specifies BIS-certified food packaging foil.

If your aluminium foil manufacturing unit is still operating without a valid IS 15392:2003 BIS license - the market you are excluded from is not a segment. Food-contact packaging materials in India are subject to mandatory BIS certification requirements, and food manufacturers who source non-certified aluminium foil for food packaging expose themselves to regulatory risk alongside their suppliers. Major food processors, dairy companies, and pharmaceutical manufacturers do not purchase non-certified food-contact packaging materials. Without your BIS license, you are not a qualified supplier.

BIS enforcement for food-contact packaging materials is active. Manufacturing or supplying non-certified aluminium foil for food packaging where BIS certification is mandatory exposes your business to enforcement action, product seizure, and legal penalties under the BIS Act, 2016.
