BIS Certification for Corrugated Aluminium Sheets | IS 1254:2007 | BIS Consultancy

Introduction

Corrugated Aluminium Sheets are lightweight and durable aluminium products commonly used for roofing, cladding, industrial structures, building applications and other engineering purposes. Their corrugated profile improves stiffness while retaining the advantages of aluminium such as low weight, corrosion resistance and ease of handling.

For manufacturers, maintaining the correct alloy and temper, profile, thickness, width, length, corrugation dimensions, mechanical properties and surface quality is important for consistent product performance.

The requested Indian Standard is:

IS 1254:2007 – Corrugated Aluminium Sheet

The BIS Product Manual for this standard identifies it as the Fourth Revision and places certification under Scheme-I of the BIS Conformity Assessment Regulations, 2018. The current BIS Product Manual available for IS 1254:2007 is PM/IS 1254/2, June 2024, with one amendment.

The current BIS compulsory-certification page continues to list IS 1254:2007 – Corrugated Aluminium Sheet under the Aluminium and Aluminium Alloy Products framework.

Qualitance India provides end-to-end BIS Certification consultancy for Corrugated Aluminium Sheet manufacturers, including product-scope assessment, documentation, laboratory testing coordination, Quality Assurance Plan support, factory inspection preparation and BIS licence assistance.

Important Current Update on IS 1254

Manufacturers should be aware of an important standards-development update.

BIS issued IS 1254:2025 – Corrugated Aluminium Sheet (Fifth Revision) and a corresponding Product Manual in June 2025. The new Product Manual identifies additional alloy designations and new temper designations compared with the 2007 revision.

At the same time, the current BIS Scheme-I compulsory-certification page continues to display IS 1254:2007 in the Aluminium and Aluminium Alloy Products section.

Therefore, manufacturers should verify the applicable standard revision and transition instructions with BIS before starting a new application, scope extension or transition activity. This is particularly important where the proposed product is affected by the newer IS 1254:2025 requirements.

What is a Corrugated Aluminium Sheet?

A Corrugated Aluminium Sheet is a flat aluminium sheet formed into a regular corrugated profile to improve structural stiffness and suitability for applications such as roofing and cladding.

The corrugated profile can take different forms depending on the intended use.

The IS 1254:2007 Product Manual identifies the following principal profile/use categories:

• General Purpose Sheet – 8/75
• General Purpose Sheet – 10/75
• General Purpose Sheet – 16/75
• Industrial Sheet
• Building Sheet
• High Stiffness Industrial Sheet
• Other profiles by agreement between manufacturer and purchaser.

Applications of Corrugated Aluminium Sheets

Corrugated Aluminium Sheets are commonly used for:

• Industrial roofing
• Building roofing
• Wall cladding
• Industrial sheds
• Warehouses
• Architectural applications
• Engineering structures
• Agricultural structures
• General-purpose sheet applications
• High-stiffness industrial applications

The exact application depends on the alloy, temper, profile and dimensions.

BIS Standard for Corrugated Aluminium Sheets

The requested standard is:

Conclusion

Corrugated Aluminium Sheets are widely used in roofing, cladding, industrial structures and building applications because they combine the benefits of aluminium with the improved stiffness provided by corrugation.

The requested standard, IS 1254:2007 – Corrugated Aluminium Sheet, is identified by BIS as the Fourth Revision, and the current accessible Product Manual PM/IS 1254/2, June 2024 provides requirements for raw material, grouping, sampling, testing equipment, Quality Assurance Plan, control units and product marking.

The 2007 Product Manual specifies the use of aluminium sheet in the relevant alloy/temper combinations, including 19000 H4, 31000 H4, 31500 H4, 40800 H4 and 51300 H4, and requires separate samples for each alloy designation under the grouping provisions.

At the same time, manufacturers must pay attention to the IS 1254:2025 Fifth Revision, which BIS issued with a new Product Manual in June 2025. The current BIS Scheme-I page still lists IS 1254:2007, while the newer standard is now present in BIS documentation and laboratory scopes. Manufacturers should therefore verify the applicable revision and transition requirements with BIS before starting a new certification application.

For manufacturers, successful BIS certification depends on correct alloy and temper selection, suitable raw-material control, accurate corrugation, dimensional inspection, mechanical-property verification, proper documentation, calibrated testing equipment and factory readiness.

With professional support from Qualitance India, Corrugated Aluminium Sheet manufacturers can receive end-to-end assistance for documentation, laboratory testing coordination, product-scope planning, technical compliance, factory inspection preparation and BIS licence processing.
