NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard which is identical with ISO 6565 : 2015 ‘Tobacco and tobacco products — Draw resistance of cigarettes and pressure drop of filter rods — Standard conditions and measurement’ issued by the International Organization for Standadization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Tobacco and Tobacco Products Sectional Committee and approval of the Food and Agriculture Divisional Council.

The text of ISO Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain terminologies and conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words ‘International Standard’ appear referring to this standard, they should be read as ‘Indian Standard’.

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
