A complete guide to ISTA package testing series — 1 through 6. Learn which ISTA protocol your product requires, what each series includes, and how to choose between 2A and 3A for your distribution environment.
Temperature and humidity testing validates packaging across extreme environmental conditions — from cold chain to tropical distribution. -40°C to +70°C, 10% to 95% RH, full ISTA pre-conditioning.
Box compression testing measures how much stacking load your packaging can withstand. Static, cyclic, and creep testing per ASTM D642 and TAPPI T804. Force capacity up to 20,000 lbs.
Packaging vibration testing replicates road, rail, and air transport vibration to validate packaging durability. Fixed-frequency and random vibration profiles, up to 2,000 lb payload capacity.
Package drop testing validates your packaging against the drops and impacts of real-world distribution. Learn ISTA and ASTM protocols, drop configurations, and how CertaPak delivers results in 48 hours.
