Why test?
To ensure your packaging truly protects. Testing reveals how your packaging performs under real-life conditions such as shock, vibration, climate changes, and stacking pressure. It helps you avoid product damage, reduce costs, comply with regulations, and deliver a better customer experience.
Cost reduction
Saving on aspects such as packaging, handling, transport costs, time can have a large influence on total costs.
Qualification
For certain products, such as temperature-sensitive medication, the authorities stipulate that these must be shipped in a qualified (insulated) packaging. Furthermore, the client also often wants a test to be performed.
Product launch
Pre-launch transport testing can identify potential failure points of your packaging or product. But, these unpleasant surprises can often be eliminated with simple changes before your first delivery happens.
Damage reduction
It is hard to determine the root cause of damage if it is identified only at delivery.
Legislation
A renewed or tightened legislation regarding transport is a reason to critically examine the current form of transport and storage. Moreover, different rules may apply in different countries.
