Our Packaging Physical and Mechanical Properties Testing ensures that your packaging can withstand environmental stress, maintain product integrity, and comply with industry standards.
Packaging Physical and Mechanical Properties Testing
Packaging plays a crucial role in protecting products from damage during storage and transportation. Our Packaging Physical and Mechanical Properties Testing service evaluates the durability and reliability of your packaging materials, ensuring they meet the necessary standards and perform effectively under real-world conditions.
Testing Capabilities
We offer a range of tests to assess the physical and mechanical properties of packaging materials, including:
- Compression Testing: Determine the ability of packaging to resist crushing forces during storage and transit.
- Tensile Strength Testing: Measure how packaging materials react to forces that pull them apart, ensuring they remain intact under stress.
- Drop Testing: Evaluate the impact resistance of packaging when dropped from various heights, simulating real-world handling scenarios.
- Vibration Testing: Simulate the effects of transport vibration to ensure packaging protects products effectively during shipping.
- Seal Integrity Testing: Verify the strength and effectiveness of seals to prevent leaks and contamination.
- Puncture Resistance Testing: Test the ability of packaging materials to resist punctures from sharp objects or accidental damage.
Importance of Mechanical Properties Testing
Testing the mechanical properties of packaging materials is critical for maintaining product integrity, especially for items that are sensitive to physical damage. Proper testing can prevent issues such as:
- Product spoilage or contamination due to packaging failure
- Customer dissatisfaction from damaged goods
- Increased costs from product returns and replacements
- Failure to meet regulatory requirements and industry standards
Standards and Compliance
Our tests adhere to internationally recognized standards, including:
- ASTM D642: Standard Test Method for Determining Compressive Resistance of Shipping Containers.
- ISO 3037: Methods for measuring the crush resistance of corrugated board.
- ISTA Protocols: Compliance with International Safe Transit Association (ISTA) test procedures for transport packaging.
