Industrial Film Packaging Testing

Testing and analysis of films used in industrial packaging.

Intertek packaging film testing and analysis techniques are available for industrial packaging materials testing.

General purpose films and heavy duty films:

• Thickness measurements
• Tensile test
• Puncture test
• Tear resistance
• Falling dart impact resistance
• Optical properties like gloss, haze, transparency
• Seal - and hottack properties

Stretch wrap film testing:

• Protrusion puncture resistance
• Peel cling
• Elastic recovery, permanent deformation and stress retention

Shrink film testing:

• Determination of the percentage of shrink
• Determination of shrink properties: thermal and cold shrink force
