How To Test Your Packaged Product For Amazon FFP
Amazon Package Testing Tiers
- Tier 1 - Frustration Free Packaging (FFP) is capable of shipping in its own container with minimized, fully recyclable and easy-to-open packaging. This ensures the most optimal experience for our customers.
- Tier 2 - Ships in Own Container (SIOC) minimizes waste through ensuring that packaging is designed to ship without the need for an Amazon Over Box.
- Tier 3 - Prep-Free Packaging (PFP) is designed to ship effectively without the need for Amazon to apply additional prep to prevent damage of leakage.

Three different categories are used for each type of packaged product tests: shipping method, handling method, and weight-and-dimensions. By testing for the e-commerce transit channels that packages go through, we can validate that your products will maintain their integrity and arrive to customers intact and undamaged. This test is intended to simulate the conditions of shipping and delivering a package, including calibrated drops and vibrations.
