IS 2556 (Part 9):2004 is an Indian standard that deals with specific requirements for pedestal-type bidets of vitreous china under BIS Certification. This product belongs to ceramic tiles and sanitary ware. These are largely installed in bathrooms, primarily for hygiene and comfort purposes. With the strength of pedestal bidets in the market, there is an increasing demand for modern bathroom fixtures. A shift towards hygienic solutions for homes and commercial spaces. Remember, this is an export product for India which makes a good presence in the market.

These bidets are sold only after attaining the ISI Mark; the offer is thus confirmed based on compliance with the Bureau of Indian Standards. In addition to other formalities, businesses must obtain clearance from BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) for imported goods, with manufacturers required to pay fees for obtaining the necessary BIS licenses.
