GBPI Certified Packaging Permeability Reference Materials

Overview

For a long time, there has been a gap in reference materials supporting packaging testing instruments across the industry. The National Metrology Development Plan (2013-2020) issued by the State Council identifies food safety, clinical laboratory testing, biology, environmental protection and material science as key R&D directions for reference materials.

The gas permeability, water vapor permeability and oxygen permeability reference materials manufactured by GBPI have obtained Grade Secondary Certified Reference Material certification. GBPI is the first institution to develop film permeability reference materials in China. These reference materials are mainly used for calibration and verification of gas, water vapor and oxygen permeability testing equipment for food and pharmaceutical packaging. Reference materials play an irreplaceable critical role in packaging performance testing.

Definition

Core Functions

• Calibrate, adjust and verify testing instruments and equipment
• Carry out product quality control during mass production
