Packaging Integrity Tests

Evaluate Your Packaging Strength and Integrity

Packaging tests are performed to evaluate the strength, integrity, and potential leakage of packaging materials and seals. For sterile barrier systems, these tests help provide evidence that the packaging can maintain its protective function and support the maintenance of sterility.

Appropriate test methods are selected based on the packaging material, porous or non-porous structure, sealing method, and product requirements.

Depending on the study objectives, testing may be performed on initial samples or samples exposed to sterilization, transport simulation, or aging. The results are evaluated against predefined acceptance criteria.
