Pressure testing of pouch bags is performed to ensure the integrity and tightness of the package. These tests are important to ensure that the packaged product is protected from external contaminants, such as air, moisture, microorganisms and other agents that may affect the quality and safety of the product.
Pressure tests on pouch bags allow verification of the following:
- Material strength: Ensures that the material used in the manufacture of the pouch is strong enough to withstand storage and transport conditions.
- The quality of welds and seals: Verify that the pouch welds and seals are correctly made and do not present leaks that could compromise the hermeticity of the container.
- Resistance to buckling and deformation: Evaluates the ability of the pouch to maintain its shape and resist internal pressure caused by the packaged product, especially in the case of products that may generate gases during storage.
- Detection of possible manufacturing defects: Allows identifying and correcting problems in the manufacturing process before the product reaches the market.
Pressure testing pouch bags is essential to ensure the quality and safety of the packaged product, as well as to comply with the regulations and standards applicable in the flexible packaging industry.
