Most packaging consists of aluminium, paper, paperboard, corrugated board and plastics. Trends such as convenience, quality and sustainability drive the packaging requirements on performance further. This results in a need to further develop the packaging materials and the packaging concepts.
Innventia contributes to the development of new testing methods for packaging materials and we can offer a variety of methods for several different packaging materials.

Testing of oxygen and water vapour
For the testing of oxygen and water vapour barrier, Mocon instruments are used. In our laboratory, we have 8 cells at our disposal. |
|
Testing of carrier bag
Innventia has developed a method
for the testing of carried bag which
today is the European Standard.

|
Corrugated board
There are several methods used for testing corrugated board.
Innventia, in the SUW Industrial Trade Group, work actively to develop the end-use properties of corrugated board. |
|
Interlayer adhesion in laminates
Innventia has developed a method
for the measurement of the interlayer adhesion in plastic /paper laminates. |

Sealing performance
The ’Hot tack’ tester was developed for testing of the sealing performance. This instrument can vary all relevant parameters: time, temperature and pressure. The results makes it possible to determine the optimal conditions for the packaging machine. |
