Impact and puncture resistance
Rycolab RL-FDT-A (calibration/verification in progress) · ZwickRoell (puncture)
We test the drop of a calibrated dart and the penetration of a probe. The tests show how the film withstands shocks in transport and contact with the hard parts of the product, such as bones or crust.

What we measure
- —Dart drop, method A — mass at which 50 % of specimens fail (instrument calibration/verification in progress)
- —Puncture force and energy
Where it is used
Vacuum packs for bone-in meat, frozen products, palletising and long transport.
