What is ISTA 3B testing?
ISTA 3B testing is a general simulation test for packaged products through a motor carrier delivery system where different types of packaged products, often from different shippers and intended for different ultimate destinations, are mixed in the same truckload.
What is ISTA testing?
ISTA tests range from those utilized early in the design process as a screening tool (1-Series) to tests that are general simulations of the hazards typically found in a specific shipment type (3-Series), and ensuring you select the correct one for your desired outcome is important.
What is ISTA 3A test?
ISTA 3A package testing is a general simulation test for individual packaged-products shipped through a parcel delivery system. The ISTA 3A test procedure is appropriate for four different types of packages commonly distributed as individual packages, either by air or ground.
What is ISTA standard?
ISTA Standard 20 Revision 2 is process standard developed by pharma industry experts. It is a design and qualification process that provides the structure and path to design, test, verify and independently certify a specific Insulated Shipping Container (ISC) for use.
What is ISTA 1A testing?
Test Procedure 1A is an integrity test for individual packaged-products. It can be used to evaluate the performance of a packaged-product. It can be used to compare relative performance of package and product design alternatives. The package and product are considered together and not separately.
What is the difference between ISTA 2A and 3A?
ISTA 2A, Packaged-Products 150 lb (68 kg) or Less. ISTA 3A, Packaged-Products for Parcel Delivery System Shipment 70 kg (150 lb) or Less. ASTM D4169-05 is currently an FDA-recognized standard.
What is ISTA 2A testing?
Test Procedure 2A is a partial simulation test for individual packaged-products. It can be used to evaluate the performance of a packaged-product. It can be used to compare relative performance of package and product design alternatives.
What is the difference between ISTA and ASTM?
ASTM D4169: The main difference lies in the fact that ISTA 1A is a rapid evaluation method. As such, it does not offer an adequate simulation in relation to the contingencies of transportation, something that the ASTM D4169 does do.
What is ASTM D3951?
ASTM D3951-18 creates guidelines for packaging supplies and equipment, exclusive of ammunition, explosives, or hazardous material. ASTM D3951-18 covers information important to commercial preservation, packaging, packing, unitization, and marking for supplies and equipment.
What is ASTM D5118?
The ASTM-D5118 Standard provides a first-rate practice for manufacturing criteria of commercial fiberboard styles and packaging ensuring a consistent manufacturing process across the board for our Hazmat boxes.
