What is a Drop Tester?
A Drop Tester is a quality testing instrument used to evaluate how packaging materials respond to impact. It simulates vertical drops from various heights to test how well a package can protect its contents when accidentally dropped.
Pacorr’s Drop Tester follows recognized international testing standards, including ASTM D5276 and ISO 2248, providing reliable and consistent performance for packaging assessment.
How Drop Testing Works
Drop testing is conducted by positioning a packaged sample on a platform and raising it to a selected height. Once released, the package falls freely onto a solid base, mimicking the effects of a drop during handling or shipping.
To fully evaluate packaging performance, three primary orientations are tested:
Flat Drop – Tests strength on the top or bottom surface
Edge Drop – Evaluates structural resistance along edges
Corner Drop – Tests the weakest point of most packaging designs
Each test helps identify how well the packaging absorbs shock and whether improvements are needed.
