Packaging Prototyping & Testing
Once packaging has been designed and developed, it is necessary to perform preliminary testing of the packaging prototype, to validate that products will withstand various challenges during transportation and storage.
Together We Safeguard Your Product through Packaging Testing
At Nefab, we recognize the critical importance of ensuring your products arrive safely and securely at their destination. Through prototyping and testing, we validate that your products can endure the various challenges they may face during transportation and storage. That's why we operate six ISTA-certified labs worldwide, dedicated to helping our customers optimize protection levels, minimize damages, and reduce costs through rigorous testing and analysis.
Safety and Regulatory Compliance
ISTA testing confirms compliance with all relevant regulatory standards, helping you avoid potential legal issues and ensuring smooth passage through customs and other regulatory checkpoints.
Time and Money-saving
Identifying and addressing potential packaging issues early in the product development process accelerates time to market and reduces costs associated with product damages, returns, replacements, and customer dissatisfaction.
Keeping Up with Industry Standards
An ISTA certificate is also a sign of quality and compliance. The organization continuously collects data and performs research to ensure its standards are current with recent industry developments.

Quick and Localized Design-to-Prototype Phase
Once solutions are designed, we efficiently produce prototypes and samples using specialized machinery. When customers provide their products, the process of prototyping, testing, and finalizing designs becomes smooth and swift.
ISTA Testing Labs: Validated Packaging Solutions
Ensuring safety and regulatory compliance is crucial in packaging engineering. At Nefab, we offer you comprehensive guidance on industry standards, certifications, and compliance requirements to help you navigate complex regulatory landscapes with ease. Our labs adhere to a wide range of industry standards, including ISTA, ASTM, ETSI, ISO, Amazon, and more. By rigorously testing our packaging solutions against these standards, we ensure they meet the highest levels of quality and reliability, regardless of the industry or application.
Six Certified Test Labs
Through our global platform and engineering network, we can help customers develop new solutions all over the world, and on top of that, we also have six ISTA Certified test labs across three continents that we utilize to quickly test and verfiy solutions.
Our Test Labs are located in:
- Wuxi, China
- San Jose, United States
- Chennai, India
- Eindhoven, Netherlands
- Runemo, Sweden
- Taoyuan, Taiwan
Collaborative Testing Partnerships with our Customers
Different products and industries have specific standards and requirements that need to be fulfilled. Through our expertise and testing capabilities, we can ensure that these requirements are met and verified. Close interaction with customers during test procedures offers a unique possibility to actively modify and accommodate design changes and improvements during this process.
Various Testing Possiblities
To prevent damage, packaging testing focuses on the product's journey and the external forces it may encounter. These forces depend on the mode of transportation and how the package is handled and stored during shipment. Two important factors to consider are mechanical constraints and climate conditions. Our test labs perform various types of packaging tests, including drop tests, vibration tests, and more to ensure durability and protection.
Detailed Testing Documentation
After each round of testing, improvements should be made until the packaging is ready for the final release test. The testing possibilities also provide another great benefit: companies will have detailed testing documentation in case of any damage during shipment to file a successful insurance claim. It is essential to complete this step because it may protect the company from excessive losses.
