Distribution Testing   

Specialized in Performance Testing of Pharmaceutical Packaging, Medical Device Packaging, Drug-Device Combination Product Packaging & Select Consumer Product Packaging 

Packaged products must be able to withstand the typical events associated with manufacture, storage, and distribution without damage. Distribution simulation testing provides a uniform and repeatable way of evaluating packaged products and packaging designs by utilizing standardized equipment and procedures. Our expert team applies test methods from both ASTM and ISTA to support a wide variety of supply chain considerations. We offer both testing and certification to streamline your testing process. 

 

ASTM Simulated Distribution Testing 

This testing replicates the drop (shock), random vibration, loose load vibration and compression a package will encounter during transportation. 

 

ISTA Transit Testing & Certification 

This testing replicates the vibration, shock, compression, and climatic conditions a package will encounter during transportation.  

 

Climatic Stressing & Freeze/Thaw Simulations 

This testing evaluates various environmental conditions such as extreme temperatures, humidity, and pressure fluctuations. 

 

Thermal Qualification for Cold Chain Shipments 

This testing ensures temperature-sensitive medical devices and drug products maintain potency and functionality throughout the logistics process.  

 

Visual Inspection 

This testing applies client-supplied protocol, but our experts offer protocol drafting services, as well.  

 

Dimensional Analysis 

This testing uses calipers, optical comparators, micrometers, and other measurement equipment to confirm that your materials comply with their specifications after simulated distribution.
