Packaging
It may be an obvious statement to say that, the primary function of packaging is to ensure the safe distribution of products and their arrival to the consumer in good condition’, but to achieve this and and enable them to be filled on fast automated packaging lines, it is critical that the physical characteristics of the package are appropriate and comply with specification.
We have a wide range of equipment to help achieve this vital testing of all the relevant materials and finished product characteristics.
Labels – stiffness, co-efficient of friction, surface free energy, cobb value colour
Cartons – colour, opening force, stiffness, side flap crease stiffness, friction, rub resistance, stacking strength.
Film & Foil – hot & cold sealability, hot tack seal strength, oxygen and water vapour permeation, friction, haze, opacity, burst strength, tear resistance.
Corrugated Boxes – box compression strength, puncture resistance, scuff resistance, transport simulation, stacking strength.
