ASTM Flexible Packaging Testing Services

Flex-Pack Engineering provides ASTM flexible packaging testing services for a wide variety of analytical and physical testing for flexible packages. Whether it is one test or one hundred tests we can handle your requirements. We can also provide custom designed flexible packaging testing services.

Flex-Pack Engineering helps our customers understand the requirements for entering new markets and provide the ASTM flexible packaging testing services to meet the fitness for use and chain of use requirements.

What sets Flex-Pack Engineering apart from a typical testing lab is our ability to provide valuable insights into the testing results to help customers solve their flexible packaging challenges. A typical testing lab will deliver lab results but will not provide any insights into what the results mean within the context of your problems or goals. We feel it is not the testing that is so important, it is the actionable insights and recommendations that the testing results provide that can help our customers achieve their flexible packaging goals or solve their problems.
