BEE Testing / Star Rating

BEE Testing / Star Rating

Through precise testing and evaluation, products are assigned a BEE Star Rating Label, which reflects their energy-saving performance — the higher the star rating, the greater the energy efficiency.

BEE Star Ratings play a crucial role in helping consumers make informed purchasing decisions, promoting energy conservation, and encouraging manufacturers to design and produce energy-efficient products.

All testing at DASHMESH TEST LAB is conducted in BEE-approved and NABL-accredited facilities, following rigorous performance, safety, and quality protocols to ensure reliable and compliant results.

Key Features of BEE Testing and Star Rating:

• Energy Performance Evaluation: Tests are conducted to measure key parameters such as power consumption, capacity, and overall energy efficiency under standardized and controlled conditions.
• Mandatory Regulatory Compliance: For several product categories — including air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, and LED lights — obtaining a BEE Star Label is a mandatory requirement before sale in the Indian market.
• Structured Star Labeling Program: Products are rated on a 1-Star to 5-Star scale, where 1-Star indicates basic efficiency and 5-Star represents the highest level of energy performance.
• Certification Assistance: Manufacturers must secure BEE certification prior to displaying the Star Label or marketing their products, ensuring authenticity and regulatory adherence.
• Wide Product Coverage: BEE testing applies to a diverse range of products, including home appliances, industrial machinery, pumps, motors, transformers, and other energy-consuming devices.
