GUIDE TO LEAK & SEAL INTEGRITY

 
DID YOU KNOW THAT LEAK SIZES MATTERS?

  • A leak of 100 microns (twice the diameter of a human hair) can bring the O2 level in your package to ambient in less than a week.
  • A leak of 50 microns can bring the O2 in your package to ambient in one or two weeks.
     

IT'S RISKY BUSINESS TO LEAVE YOUR QUALITY CONTROL TO THE CONSUMER 

Consumer satisfaction depends on your product maintaining its taste and appearance from factory to retail to home. If your package integrity is compromised, it may affect the shelf life and your product may be disposed of, or worse, purchased and fail to meet expectations – and consumers might never give you a second chance. Failure to properly detect leaks can decrease consumer satisfaction and damage your brand.

Compromised package integrity can lead to expensive product recalls.The direct costs of an actual recall generally include:

  • Lost sales
  • Returning products (reverse logistics)
  • Notifying retailers
  • Storing and disposing of contaminated or mislabeled products
  • Litigation costs
  • Possibly government fines
