Paper testing

We’ve specialized in the design and manufacture of testing instruments for pulp, paper, and packaging industries for almost 100 years, so you’d better believe that we have paper testing all wrapped up.

Paper testing for packaging and products

We offer reliable measurement and testing instruments to rapidly analyze physical properties of your paper materials – giving you a clear picture of which packaging works best for your products and whether your paper samples are fit for purpose.

Whether you’re at the R&D phase for a new kind of packaging, you’re looking for a more sustainable alternative to your liners, or you need to test whether a particular type of paper is suitable for printing, we can help.

Precise paper testing

Our instruments can measure more than 50 discrete properties based on international testing standards. The long list includes coefficient of friction (COF), product thickness, gage and/or bulking properties, adhesion, release and tack, compression strength and crush resistance, tensile strength, impact resistance, internal bond strength, rub and wear resistance, and printability and print quality.

No matter what you need to know about your paper samples, we have the testing machines and equipment to help you get the data you need.

Measure a wide spectrum with the Technidyne ColorTouch® X ISO, which brings together a powerful set of tools to meet the demands of the brightness, color and fluorescence markets. Discover pulp morphology measurements with the MorFI NEO or measure the hardness of a roll and avoid problematic paper waste with the ACA RoQTM roll hardness profiler.
