Coveris, the manufacturer of flexible and rigid packaging, is using the Systech 8001 oxygen permeability analyser to validate the barrier performance of its packaging films.

The primary function of the packaging is to provide optimised barrier properties to extend the shelf-life of the products it is protecting. A high barrier against oxygen permeation is essential in order to maintain a long shelf-life.

Within its research and development (R&D) department, Coveris uses the permeability analyser to test the barrier performance of its packaging films and it has recently purchased additional expansion units for this instrument to increase testing throughput.

The Systech 8001 offers a wide measurement range and precise humidity control for switching between wet and dry samples in minutes. As well as being suitable for R&D testing, this instrument also has the speed required for quality control testing applications.
