**Impact Analysis**
**Manufacturers and Industrial Producers**
**Impact**
Manufacturers of thermometers, leather goods, footwear, and building products must adapt their production processes to meet the updated technical specifications and sampling methods.
**Action Required**
Must update manufacturing protocols and quality control systems to comply with the 2026 versions of the standards before the 25 September 2026 deadline.
**Testing Laboratories and Quality Assurance Professionals**
**Impact**
Laboratories will need to update their testing methodologies, equipment calibration, and accreditation scopes to reflect the revised procedures, particularly for leather testing and indoor air VOC analysis.
**Action Required**
Must review the new standards, procure necessary updated equipment if required, and ensure all testing reports refer to the 2026 versions following the transition period.
**Building and Construction Industry Stakeholders**
**Impact**
Suppliers and installers of building products are now subject to standardized determination of VOC emissions to ensure indoor air quality.
**Action Required**
Must ensure that building products and furnishings are sampled, stored, and prepared for emission testing according to the new IS 17118 (Part 11) protocols.
