The annual general meeting of the technical committee on natural rubber and rubber-based products of International Standards Organisation will formally announce quality standards for rubber-based products on Friday.
Technical sessions on rubber products, except automotive tyres, are being organised at the 57th annual meeting, being held at Kochi.
Committee chairman Christie Roberts said though the process of setting standards was a difficult task as they vary from country to country, fixing globally accepted standards was essential.
Globally, 435 standards had been accepted for rubber products, but in India this is 236, said Madhulika Prakash, deputy director general of the Bureau of Indian Standard. The plenary session of the technical committee was formally opened by the chairman. The five-day meet will address issues relating to the creation, revising, updating and deletion of standards pertaining to the rubber industry and materials.
