Testing Standard:
ISTA 2B Packaged Products Weighing Over 150 lb (68 kg) or ISTA 2B Packaged Products
Standard Number
ISTA 2B
Standard Title
Packaged-Products Over 150 lb (68 kg)
Overview for ISTA 2B Packaged Products:
ISTA 2B Packaged Products utilizes a combination of basic tests from ISTA 1 Series and advanced tests from ISTA 3 Series to conduct partial simulation performance test procedures. This procedure challenges the packaged products to withstand transport hazards. Therefore, it can be used to evaluate packaged products intended for international distribution. Purple Diamond Testing offers ISTA 2B Testing as part of our packaging distribution testing services.
Rationale for ISTA 2B Packaged Products:
Next, ISTA 2B Packaged Products Over 150 lb. (68 kg) can be used to compare relative performance of package and product design variations using atmospheric conditioning, compressive force, vibration on multiple orientations (random or fixed displacement), and shock tests (drop or incline impact with rotational edge drop). Furthermore, the procedure is used to create harsh worst-case hazards in a laboratory environment while comparing multiple design variation packaging systems. Therefore, if you are interested in having your packaged product evaluated, then it is important you reach out to us via the contact page. In summary, you can schedule a phone call or a facility tour for a first consultation. Related keywords: ista 2b, ista 2b pdf, ista 2b standard
Key Points:
