Highlighted industries are sectors that drive economic growth, innovation, and job creation. They often involve cutting-edge technologies, sustainable solutions.
We provide reliable testing solutions for solar and renewable energy companies. We make sure every component performs efficiently.
The helmet testing industry ensures safety and reliability for all forms of head protection in transportation, industry, defense, firefighting, and sports.
Fire extinguishers are vital fire-fighting gadgets that have been protecting different commercial, domestic, and food places since 1723.
We assure testing the domestic electrical equipment with the same rigor and care as industrial-grade machinery.
The roots of this system stretch back to the British period. The body we now call PESO (Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organization) began forming in the late 1800s. During that time, it was known as the Department of Explosives. Its primary role was to monitor materials like petroleum, compressed gases and other explosive substances.
Anyone who works with such materials understands the risks involved—sometimes a single spark can trigger a disaster. Compressed gases are even more sensitive because they can combine flammable, toxic and corrosive elements.
Over time, the organization developed a reputation for strong oversight in areas involving hazardous materials. Its scope includes manufacturing, refining, storage, transport, daily handling and end-use. Today, PESO regulates explosive materials, petroleum, compressed gases, pressure vessels, gas cylinders, cross-country pipelines, LNG, CNG, Auto LPG, CBG, flameproof electrical equipment and ammonium nitrate.
PESO is also known by its older name, Chief Controller of Explosives. Its headquarters is in Nagpur, Maharashtra. The organization oversees safety related to the manufacturing, import, export, sale, storage, transportation and handling of explosive or flammable materials.
It also regulates pressure vessels, petroleum products and compressed gases. Even petrol pumps in India fall under PESO's jurisdiction.
PESO functions independently under the DPIIT. PESO certification is the official approval required for equipment and machinery used in the oil and gas sector. Such products must be handled with extreme care as they operate in hazardous environments.
SMPV refers to Static and Mobile Pressure Vessels. These vessels are built to store gases or liquids at high pressure, keeping the contents stable and reducing accident risks. They are governed by The Static and Mobile Pressure Vessels (Unfired) Rules, 1981.
Recognition under SMPV (U) Rules, 1981 is given under the following rules:
The application (Appendix IIIA) requires the following:
In Appendix IIIB, the applicant must have an engineering degree in chemical, mechanical, marine or metallurgical fields or equivalent experience.
After documents are reviewed, the applicant must appear before the PESO Interview Board, which meets four times a year. The panel evaluates practical knowledge about design, fabrication, testing, inspection, operation and international standards. Their recommendations go to the Chief Controller, who grants final approval.
Note: IECEx or ATEX reports are widely accepted. Without them, testing must be done in India.
Approximately three to four months.
The PESO licence is valid for three years and must be renewed thereafter.
