Compression Tester – innPress

Loads are exposed to different compressive forces, both vertical and lateral, during handling, warehouse automatic storage and transport. The innPress family provides the necessary information for packaging characterization and design.

Several international standards like ISTA, ASTM or EN, include compression tests in their testing protocols.
