SERVES FOR NATION


News Desk, News Nation 360 : The top battery and flashlight manufacturer in the nation, Eveready Industries India Ltd., declared that The Eveready Flashlight Company (TEFCO), its manufacturing plant, has been certified by the esteemed Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). The prestigious award was given to the company's Lucknow facility, one of the biggest and oldest torch manufacturing facilities in the nation, in appreciation of its manufacturing skills and unwavering dedication to quality and excellence. Anirban Banerjee, Chief Executive Officer, Eveready Industries India Ltd., stated that, being the top torch brand in India, they are ecstatic to have their Lucknow plant get the prestigious BIS certification. Being the industry leader in flashlights, Eveready's product line already complies completely with all strict quality criteria, providing customers with transparency, safety, and value. This certification reaffirms their commitment to quality excellence and demonstrates their commitment to gaining the trust of their customers. India's flashlight market has witnessed an influx of unorganised players offering uncertified products through unofficial channels, with many of them not having the necessary BIS certification and also not adhering to legal metrology standards like marking the Maximum Retail Price (MRP) on the package. Several of these torches also circulate exaggerated, unsubstantiated technical specifications, thus causing consumers potential deception. To address this condition, BIS certification of flashlights on the market will now guarantee that only thoroughly tested, quality products are available to consumers, hence boosting consumer confidence and encouraging standardisation and fair competition throughout the marketplace. This certification not only makes India's stringent performance and safety standards mandatory but also protects the interests of domestic manufacturers. Eveready, a name synonymous with quality in India's flashlight industry, has set the pace by introducing BIS standards at its TEFCO plant, which has an NABL-accredited lab to thoroughly test products. Eveready's flashlights and torches are tested in these accredited laboratories as part of their quality control procedure, reinforcing once again the dependability and performance of Eveready products. Upon certification, Eveready BIS-approved flashlights and torches will prominently display the official ISI mark and Central Mark License (CML) number on the packaging, providing the consumer with definite assurance of their compliance and quality.
