Description

The Box Compression Test (BCT) evaluates the stacking strength of boxes and is one of the most common tests on packaging.

For its realization, the packaging is placed in a compression machine, where it is subjected to an increasing pressure in order to find the resistance of the packaging.

Lansmont Corporation, Alava Ingenieros’ technical partner, is a specialist in packaging testing systems, such as compression testing machines.
