Container Performance

iStock-1087219418-fill-filling

The physico-chemical properties of the materials have a strong impact on the performance of the entire container system. Container performance analysis embraces a diverse range of investigative fields, such as material, chemical, physical, mechanical engineering. Accurately testing the container performance (product/use-dependent) maximizes drug efficacy as well as device reliability and performance.
