SCHEME OF INSPECTION AND TESTING
FOR
MOULDED SOLID RUBBER SOLES AND HEELS ACCORDING TO IS 5676 : 1995

1. LABORATORY - A laboratory shall be maintained which shall be suitably equipped (as per the
requirement given in column 2 of Table 1) and staffed, where different tests given in the specification
shall be carried out in accordance with the methods given in the specification.

1.1 The manufacturer shall prepare and implement a calibration plan for the test equipment.

2. TEST RECORDS – The manufacturer shall maintain test records for the tests carried out to establish
conformity.
3. PACKING AND MARKING – The Standard Mark as given in Schedule of the licence shall be
marked on each sole (with/without heels) and each heel provided always that the moulded solid rubber
Soles and heels to which this mark is thus applied conforms to every requirement of the specification.

b) Name and address of Manufacturer
c) BIS website details i.e. – “For details of BIS certification please visit www.bis.gov.in”

3.2 Packing – The material shall be packed (if applicable) as per clause 6.3 of IS 5676:1995

4. CONTROL UNIT – For the purpose of this scheme, all finished solid Rubber Soles and heels
produced in a day or any other quantity as defined by the manufacturer, of the same type, dimension,
design and manufactured from the same type of rubber shall constitute a control unit.

5. LEVELS OF CONTROL - The tests as indicated in column 1 of Table 1 and the levels of control
in column 3 of Table 1, shall be carried out on the whole production of the factory which is covered by
this plan and appropriate records maintained in accordance with paragraph 2 above.

5.1 All the production which conforms to the Indian Standard and covered by the licence should be
marked with Standard Mark.

6. REJECTIONS – Disposal of non-conforming product shall be done in such a way so as to ensure

that there is no violation of provisions of BIS Act, 2016.
