Ink, Printing & Coating
Continual financial pressures on production lines for faster and more efficient performance means manufacturers, converters and end users are constantly striving to shorten the cycle rates on packaging lines. Packaging materials and products are constantly being developed to meet the demand for stronger, tamper resistant and longer life packages.
Companies across the world rely on the accuracy and ease of use of RDM Test Equipment, that's why you can be confident in your choice.
Benefits: • Quality Control of materials, process variables, and end of line materials/packages • Research & Development of the physical characteristics of materials and pack designs • Analyse Shelf Life attributes • Reduced costs, improved sustainability • Increase productivity through optimised package cycle rates, and reduced wastage • Protection/increase brand value • Quality Assurance with on-line analysis • Traceability / Regulatory / Contract compliance, using International Testing Standards.
