RECYCLED PACKAGING

RECYCLED PACKAGING

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and recycled PET (rPET) packaging materials need to go through some tests and analyzes in order to determine parameters such as durability, whether they have been recycled before, and the purity of the packaging material.
PAPER

PAPER

Packaging materials obtained from many raw materials are used in food products. One of the most used materials today is paper, which is especially used for disposable packaging. Paper packages must go through some tests and analyzes to determine their physical durability.
METAL

METAL

Metal packaging is used especially for foods that are used in canned food, which are more affected by environmental factors and can be used for long-term storage. Products such as cheese, olives, corn, and peas are the products in which tin packaging is used the most.
PLASTIC

PLASTIC

Today, plastic is the most used packaging material due to its cheapness and ease of use. It is the type of packaging that we see most often on the market shelves, especially in single-use packaging.
GLASS

GLASS

Many materials, especially paper, metal and plastic, are used as packaging materials. However, especially in recent years, glass packaging is preferred because it is safer in terms of health. It is preferred in terms of security. However, since it comes into contact with food for a long time, it needs to pass some tests and analyzes.

Container Compression Testing

Container Compression Testing

Container Compression Testing

One of the test methods used to measure the compressive strength of packages such as cans, drums and cans is the Container Compression Test. It provides a graph of deformation against compression force with the Container Compression Test. This method is also used for testing boxes, drums and cans, as well as shipping boxes, wooden boxes and crates made of corrugated cardboard.

The Container Compression Test procedure is based on compressing a box between two rigid rollers at a constant speed of 13 mm/min. With this test method, results such as peak load, deformation at peak load, load at a critical deformation (head cavity, etc.), ability to protect the contents of a container from compression damage can be obtained.

The test can be performed on empty or full cans, with or without lids. Conditioning samples to temperature and humidity is important.
