Packaging testing

Product packaging must be sturdy enough to withstand the rigours of transportation and environmental conditions, while remaining durable, safe, and convenient for end users. Packaging material testing services from TÜV SÜD ensure this. They comprise a range of tests designed to assess the suitability of packaging materials for use with a given product. We have the expertise to help you with the complete range of these tests. 

Testing of packaging materials assures that your packaging will protect your product from damage or degradation during transportation and distribution. Packaging material testing can also reduce your packaging costs by identifying appropriate protection levels and reducing the amount of packaging materials used. 

TÜV SÜD offers a full range of services for packaging testing that replicates the mechanical and climatic conditions that products may encounter during transportation and storage.

Our experts possess up to date knowledge of packaging testing methods and packaging testing standards.  Comprehensive testing of packaging materials helps us determine a product’s susceptibility to damage so that an appropriate level of packaging protection is used.
