Package testing
What packaging testing is? In order to know the mechanical stiffness properties of a packaging-product system in front of the distribution cycle, the system needs to be measured or evaluated. Its mechanical properties need to be well know, dimensions,...

ISTA Testing Amazon
Amazon test requirements Any company that wants to sell its products through Amazon and improve its shipping performance, would have to pass certain tests and comply with a series of requirements regarding packaging. This is known as the Amazon ISTA test, and...

Impact test
What is impact test? The impact test is used to analyze the resistance of a material. The test involves looking at the material when it experiences a shock that causes the sample to fracture, deform, or break. Types of impact test The three most frequent types of...

Compression testing
What compression testing means? During transport, handling and warehouse automatic storage, compressive forces are produced on the load due to the stacking of the packages or the exercise pressure between each other during movement. A compression tester allows...

Drop test standards
What drop test packaging means? A drop test performs the simulation of drops and rotational impacts that may affect packages and products during handling and distribution. These tests can simulate flat, edge, as well as corner drops. Drop test standards...

Clamp testing
What clamping force means? During automatic storage, the packages not only suffer vertical compressions, but also horizontal compression than can affect to the package floor retain properties, producing that the inside product can fall down. In order to...

Acceleration test
Acceleration testing procedure During goods transportation and handling, loads are subjected to many types of movements, amongst them trucks accelerations and decelerations. Acceleration is the name given to any process where there is a change of...

Vibration testing
Vibration test procedure features A vibration test can reproduce movements during load and unload, vibrations in the vehicle and horizontal accelerations/decelerations incurred in transport by road, plain, train or sea damage and deform packaging...
