How to Get BIS Certification For Toys

A BIS certification also offers several benefits rather than just building loyalty and trust, but provides other benefits which help expansion and diversification

The toy market serves as a great opportunity for toy manufacturers to grow and diversify their business, not only Indian manufacturers but foreign manufacturers too. However, to ensure safety the government has implemented several parameters which are obligatory to follow.
