Packaging systems must withstand dynamic loads and environmental extremes during global transport. Resonate Testing supports OEMs, logistics providers, and packaging designers with: 

  • ISTA Protocol Compliance 
    Vibration and shock testing for packaged goods under ISTA 1A, 2A, and 3E standards. 

 

  • Drop & Impact Simulation 
    Percussive shock and free-fall testing for cartons, crates, and pallets.
  • Environmental Stress Temperature and humidity cycling for reliability in tropical, desert, and arctic climates. 

EV Battery & Dangerous Goods Testing

Electric vehicle batteries and hazardous materials require rigorous validation for safe transport. Resonate Testing delivers: 

  • UN 38.3 Transport Testing 
    Vibration, shock, and thermal cycling for lithium-ion cells and packs. 
  • IEC 62133 Compliance 
    Abuse testing including crush, impact, and short-circuit scenarios. 
  • OEM-Specific Protocols 
    Custom test programmes for leading automotive and energy brands.
