Udaipur : Hindustan Zinc Limited, the world’s largest integrated zinc producer and among the top 10 silver producers globally, has strengthened its certified alloy portfolio with the inclusion of Hindustan Zinc Die-Casting Alloy 5 (HZDA 5) under the certification framework of the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS).

The certification recognises the quality, reliability and performance of HZDA 5 and provides customers with additional assurance regarding consistent product quality.
BIS is India’s national quality certification system that ensures products meet prescribed standards for quality, safety and performance. For industrial customers, the certification serves as an added guarantee of product reliability and quality control.
With both HZDA 3 and HZDA 5 now BIS certified, Hindustan Zinc is offering customers a broader portfolio of certified zinc alloys. The development further strengthens the company’s position as a trusted supplier of high-quality and responsibly manufactured zinc alloy products in both domestic and international markets.
Commenting on the achievement, Arun Misra said the inclusion of HZDA 5 under BIS certification marks an important milestone in expanding the company’s certified product portfolio. He said certification represents not only compliance with standards but also a commitment to delivering dependable quality and long-term value to customers.
HZDA 3 and HZDA 5 have been developed for applications where strength, precision, durability and high performance are essential. These zinc die-casting alloys are widely used across the automobile, engineering, infrastructure and other industrial sectors, where material quality directly influences the performance of the final product.
The certification comes at a time when customers are increasingly prioritising certified products, reliable supply chains and responsibly sourced materials in their procurement decisions. Certified products help reduce purchasing risks and provide greater confidence in product quality.
The achievement also reflects Hindustan Zinc’s commitment to Total Quality Management across the entire value chain, from raw material procurement and production to testing, logistics and customer delivery. The company stated that advanced technologies, robust quality-control systems and modern platforms such as Laboratory Information Management Systems and Agile Quality Circles help ensure product quality, precision and traceability.
The company noted that certifications including BIS, REACH and LBMA demonstrate its commitment to national and global quality standards.
The development further strengthens Hindustan Zinc’s wider product portfolio, which includes refined zinc, lead, silver, zinc alloys and its low-carbon zinc brand, EcoZen. With an expanding certified product portfolio, the company aims to provide customers with high-quality, responsibly manufactured and future-ready metal solutions.
Hindustan Zinc is also enhancing customer convenience and transparency through the Vedanta Metal Bazaar platform, which improves product availability, traceability and reliability for buyers.
With the addition of HZDA 5 to its BIS-certified portfolio, Hindustan Zinc has further reinforced its customer-focused approach, commitment to certified quality, dependable supply and responsible manufacturing while supporting India’s manufacturing and industrial growth.
