Package Barrier Testing

ems4 — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 20:23:03 +0000

One of the first questions that a producer often asks when launching a new product or modifying an existing product is, “What type of package should I use?” Shelf life testing is a great affordable way to look at the performance of your product in an array of different packages. Using accelerated shelf life you can often find exactly what you are looking for in just weeks. Often time we can monitor organoleptic properties as well as changes in chemical properties over time. Call Erin Smith at 402-829-9845 to help with the design of your next packaging project.
