Thermal Packaging Simulation Testing

Once design qualification is completed, we move to operational qualification to qualify the performance against the desired ambient profile within the desired temperature range and duration for seasonal and universal applications. 

Evaluate and address potential risks from: 

  • Supply chain delays 
  • Seasonality  
  • Packaging design 
  • Temperature excursions

Thermal Performance Testing

Upon completion of the design qualification, the next step is to run the operational qualification to finalize the required temperature range and duration requirements both for seasonal and universal applications.  Our lab in San Marcos, CA processes the thermal testing against the required ambient profile.  

  • 6 thermal chambers 
  • ISTA Standard 7D & 7E testing 
  • Thermal Test reports

Distribution Testing

Upon completion of the operational qualification, most solutions require ISTA 3 series testing to ensure the packaging fully protects the payload through delivery.  Our ISTA-certified facility can also conduct ISTA Series 1-6 test procedures to fully validate your packaging.

  • Shock, compression and vibration testing 
  • Drop and rotational testing 
  • Side impact and tip over testing

KEEPING SUSTAINABILITY COOL

Patent-Pending, Sustainable Cold Chain Solutions

Orora is leading the transition to a more sustainably packaged future with curbside recyclable* thermal packaging products. We developed our TempSafe™ Bioshield suite of pre-qualified solutions to replace more expensive EPS and PUR systems for companies that are looking to improve their carbon footprint while maintaining performance.
