The preservation of foodstuffs is achieved by the inherent design of the packaging structure, whose primary function is to provide optimised barrier performance to extend the shelf life of the product it’s protecting. A high barrier against oxygen permeation is essential in order to maintain a high shelf life. Coveris use the 8001 Oxygen Permeability Analyser to test the barrier performance of their packaging films. They have recently purchased additional expansion units for this analysis instrument to increase testing throughput. This leading permeation analyser from Systech Illinois offers the widest measurement range in the market and precise humidity control for switching between wet and dry samples in minutes.
