Our services for validating green claims in the packaging industry include:
Biobased content testing by ASTM D6866 and EN-16785-1 standards
Recyclability testing of paper and board packaging by European industry standards
Biodegradability and compostability testing, covering home compostability, industrial compostability, and biodegradation in soil and marine environments
Mechanical and thermal testing
Some of our most popular tests for assessing the durability of packaging materials under various types and intensities of mechanical stress include the following:
To optimize performance in high- and low-temperature conditions, we offer the following standardized tests:
We also offer a range of additional mechanical and thermal tests on a case-by-case basis. Do not hesitate to contact us for more information.
