Importance of testing FMCG packaging products

70% of FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) buyers make their purchasing decisions based on packaging alone. That’s a huge number, and it only goes to show how important good packaging is for FMCG products. But what exactly makes for good packaging? When you deliver products accurately to the customers, then there will be chances that your products will not get damaged. By testing your packaging before it goes to market, you can avoid any potential disasters and ensure that your product’s packaging is the best it can be. We at Testronix have designed high-quality FMCG packaging testing instruments. These testing instruments will be used to test the different aspects of FMCG packaging and ensure that quality materials will be delivered. Here in this blog, we are going to discuss the importance of testing FMCG packaging products. We will also discuss brief information about how your FMCG materials get tested easily with the use of Testronix FMCG packaging materials. So, let us get started!

Why it’s important to test FMCG packaging products?

Before FMCG packaging products are released to the market, it is important to test them to ensure that they meet safety and quality standards. The first and foremost reason for testing FMCG packaging products is to ensure the safety of consumers. If these materials are tested against breakage, spillage, or other related means then it will help the consumers to ensure that quality materials will be delivered.

In addition to safety concerns, testing FMCG packaging products also allows manufacturers to assess the quality of their products. Poorly-designed or manufactured packaging can result in damaged goods, which not only results in financial losses for the company but can also lead to customer dissatisfaction. By testing FMCG packaging products before they are put on the market, companies can avoid these costly mistakes.

We at Testronix offer a wide range of FMCG packaging materials that include a co-efficient of friction tester, gloss meter, TP310 Portable Color Measurement, Peel Strength / Seal Strength Tester Digital, and many more. Testing FMCG packaging products helps companies to stay ahead of the competition by ensuring that their products meet or exceed industry standards. In today's increasingly globalized economy, consumers have a wide range of choices when it comes to purchasing food items.

Different lab testing instruments used to test FMCG packaging

By testing FMCG packaging before delivering them, you can assure that the package delivered will be free of any errors. Below we have listed different types of FMCG testing instruments that will help the manufacturers to test the packaging materials with ease.

• Co-Efficient of Friction Tester: This is one of the high-quality lab testing equipment that is used to test the frictional properties of the materials and ensure that quality products will be delivered to the customers. This instrument offers the best accuracy while measuring the coefficient of friction and also comprises of automatic testing mechanism which simulates the actual friction conditions. This further helps in giving precise and accurate test reports.
• Scuff Tester: Scuff resistance tester is a very accurate instrument to evaluate the rub resistance between two stickers or any general printed material. The term scuff implies the rubbing of two materials against each other. The Testronix scuff tester rubs two printed materials against each, other face to face in the same plane at a constant speed and rubbing pressure. This quality lab testing equipment is used to test the scuff resistance of materials and ensure that your printed materials will remain intact.
• Humidity Chamber Digital: This is one of the frequent lab testing equipment that has been designed to test the different segments of the materials against humidity and high temperatures. This lab testing instrument will be designed as per industrial standards that include ASTM D1776 / D1776M – 15 & BS 950 Part 1 (D 65). This will ensure that quality products will be delivered to the customers.
• Peel Strength / Seal Strength Tester Digital: The Peel Seal Adhesion Strength Tester is an innovative instrument that helps in measuring the adhesion Strength or peel ability of self-adhesive pressure-sensitive materials. With the use of this quality lab testing instrument, the FMCG manufacturers will easily test the peel ability of packaging materials and ensure that quality materials will be delivered.
