The Coefficient of Friction is more than just a number on a spec sheet; it is the pulse of your packaging line. By balancing the "grip" required by pull belts with the"glide" required by the forming collar, and by monitoring the behavior of slip additives through rigorous testing, you can eliminate the most common causes of VFFS downtime.

A successful packaging strategy requires a balance between material cost and structural safety. By utilizing rigorous compression testing, brands can optimize their material usage without risking catastrophic failure in the supply chain. Continue reading
To minimize management risk in gene and cell therapy packaging, organizations must implement a data-driven cold chain packaging validation strategy. This involves verifying container-closure integrity (CCI) after exposure to extreme temperatures, testing material robustness to prevent brittle failure, and ensuring label traceability remains intact despite a steep temperature gradient. Continue reading
Seal integrity testing plays a vital role in ensuring the safety, shelf life, and performance of packaged products—especially in the food, pharmaceutical, and medical device industries. Whether your product is packed in flexible pouches, bottles, or blister packs, even the smallest leak can compromise product quality and brand trust.
Here are 5 essential reasons why seal integrity testing should be a key part of your quality assurance strategy.
