A practical option is to employ the use of a package testing service that utilizes non-destructive equipment & test methods that are accepted industry standards and recognized by both the FDA and ASTM.
Tuckahoe, New York (PRWEB) May 24, 2007 -- Packaging Technologies & Inspection (PTI) announces Package Testing & Inspection Service for all types of packaging.
Sanjeet Saxena, marketing manager, commented "In recent months, there have been a number of product recalls by the FDA in the food and pharmaceutical industries. These recalls have been directly related to issues regarding food formulation, contamination, lack of assurance of sterility, and package and seal integrity defects. Due to both the nature and frequency of these recalls, there is an increased awareness about the importance of package integrity testing and inspection. It's an important step in getting your product to market and in maintaining consistent quality and consumer confidence in your product and your brand."
PTI now offers an in-house package testing service. PTI's testing service is a cost-effective solution for process control batch testing, test market, product start-up, trial products and can be a valuable tool at various stages of the package development process. All testing is performed using PTI's non-destructive inspection technologies. The following types of package testing services are available:
Pouch seal testing - Seal-ScanTM analysis of pouch seals using ultrasound technology. Test
result statistics and detailed images of pouch seals & defect profiles are provided.
Package integrity testing of filled & sealed cups, trays, pouches, bottles - VeriPac vacuum
decay leak testing. ASTM F2338-05 Test Method & Recognized FDA Standard for Package
Integrity Testing.
Micro leak testing of vials, ampoules, empty & pre-filled syringes - VeriPac differential
pressure & vacuum decay micro leak testing. ASTM F2338-05 Test Method & Recognized
FDA Standard for Package Integrity Testing.
Reports & Results - Test results and statistics are compiled in report form. All data undergoes
stringent quality control review prior to final report issuance.
Saxena adds "The costs associated with a product recall are considerable when you include cost of tracking and retrieving product, assessment, replacement, fines and legal fees. For drug and food safety, it's not an option for companies to take risks that will jeopardize product or package quality, and testing your package is a critical part of that process. Time-to market is always an important issue, and for many companies, the decision making process for equipment capital expenditures can often take considerable time and can delay implementing an inspection method at a critical phase of the manufacturing and production process. A practical option is to employ the use of a package testing service that utilizes non-destructive equipment & test methods that are accepted industry standards and recognized by both the FDA and ASTM. Companies can implement a testing program very quickly with fast result turnaround. Plus, they have the added benefit of using only the services they need when they need them."
