(CercleFinance.com) - Britain's Intertek has opened a packaging performance testing facility at its Grand Rapids, Michigan laboratory.


The new plant provides end-to-end evaluation of product packages, from design to material assessment and sustainability, Intertek said.

The company specialising in safety and quality tests said the facility is its first packaging lab in North America to be accredited by the International Safe Transit Association (ISTA).

It is estimated that around 10% of packages purchased online reach consumers in a damaged condition.
