Semiconductor Gas Suppliers Seek Updated Safety Regulations from PESO
Suppliers to India's semiconductor manufacturing sector are urging the Petroleum and Explosives Safety Organisation (PESO) to establish detailed regulatory guidelines for handling industrial gases, many of which are toxic and flammable. This call aims to mitigate risks such as leaks and fires and to support investor confidence as the industry grows, notably with investments like the Tata fab in Dholera. Current regulations cover few of the approximately 50 gases used, prompting industry and government discussions to update safety frameworks.
