Standards

This Code of Practice gives recommendations for storage of tyres, inner tubes and flaps.

This publication was last reviewed and confirmed in 2025. Therefore this version remains current.

This Guyana Standard is a glossary which defines terms related to passenger car and commercial vehicle tyres. The standard is divided into six sections dealing respectively with general definitions, definitions related to structure, main components, tyre dimensions, service, injury and repair.

This standard specifies the requirements for new and used pneumatic passenger car tyres, along with their storage conditions. It does not apply to tyres for highway commercial vehicles.

This document specifies the general requirements and tests for safety devices for fuel gases and oxygen or compressed air which do not incorporate a flame (flashback) arrestor used downstream of manifold, cylinder and/or pipeline outlet regulators, and upstream of blowpipes for welding, cutting and allied processes. This document does not specify the location of these devices in the gas system. This document is not applicable to safety devices which incorporate a flame arrestor, covered by ISO 5175-1.

This standard specifies physical dimensions, performance and marking requirements for pneumatic tyres for highway commercial vehicles. Test methods for determining conformity to the performance requirements are also included. 

This standard specifies physical dimensions, performance and marking requirements for new, used and retreaded pneumatic tyres for highway commercial vehicles.

This standard also includes test methods for determining conformity to the performance requirements stated.

This standard outlines minimum requirements for performance, labelling, construction and testing of non-medical face masks. These non-medical face masks are intended to reduce the risk of general transmission of infectious agents but do not fall under the ambit of personal protective equipment (PPE).

This standard is applicable to non-medical face masks made out of paper, plastic, fabric or any other breathable materials, synthetic or natural, that are disposable or reusable. It also applies to non-medical face masks that are stitched or bonded by any other methods.

This standard does not apply to the following types of face masks:

a)     folded without stitching;

b)     medical; and

c)      elastomeric particulate respirators.

This standard does not address flame resistance, high-heat, electrical arc or related hazards.

This document specifies chemical and labelling requirements for alcohol based hand sanitizers.

This standard applies to over-the-counter alcohol-based hand sanitizers.

This standard does not apply to:

a)              Non-alcohol based hand sanitizers;

b)              medical-grade hand sanitizers;

hand sanitizers used for surgical application

This standard specifies the minimum requirements and test methods for sodium hypochlorite solutions (liquid chlorine bleaches), including scented solutions. This standard also specifies the requirements for labelling and characteristics of containers.

This standard applies to solutions which contain sodium hypochlorite as the only active ingredient.

This standard does not apply to industrial grade sodium hypochlorite solutions.
