Resonate Testing supports packaging and transport testing under ISTA.
Packaging testing assesses whether a packaged product can withstand the vibration, shock, impact, compression and environmental conditions experienced during handling, storage and transportation. Resonate Testing supports manufacturers, packaging engineers and logistics teams across the UK and Ireland with packaging test programmes designed around the product, packaging configuration, distribution route and required acceptance criteria.
Testing may include vibration testing, drop and impact testing, compression testing and environmental conditioning. The appropriate test sequence and severity depend on factors such as product mass, package type, shipment method and the hazards expected throughout the distribution chain.
ISTA packaging testing uses recognised procedures to evaluate the performance of the complete product and packaging combination. These procedures can support packaging development, transport validation, damage reduction and confidence that packaged products are suitably protected during distribution. The correct ISTA test procedure should be selected according to the packaged product, shipment configuration, distribution environment and customer requirement.
