Our headspace gas analysis service is specifically tailored for Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) applications, where maintaining precise internal gas compositions is critical to product quality and shelf life. By accurately measuring oxygen (O₂) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels within sealed packages, we help manufacturers verify that their packaging environments meet required specifications. This analysis is essential for perishable products like fresh produce, meats, dairy, baked goods, and ready-to-eat meals, where incorrect gas ratios can accelerate spoilage, encourage microbial growth, or compromise texture and flavor. In pharmaceutical and medical packaging, proper gas balance also plays a vital role in preserving product stability and efficacy. To provide deeper insights, we work closely with our Special Project Team to conduct shelf-life studies, including microbiological testing, to assess how gas composition influences safety and longevity.
Complementing our gas analysis capabilities, we also offer packaging integrity testing to evaluate the airtightness and reliability of flexible packaging. Using a vacuum chamber with water, our method detects leaks by submerging sealed packages and reducing internal pressure, causing any trapped gases to escape and form visible bubbles at leak points. This technique is particularly effective for flexible packaging formats such as pouches, sachets, and vacuum-sealed bags used across food, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods industries. It is ideal for identifying microleaks, seal failures, and material defects that could compromise product safety and shelf life. By combining precise leak detection with headspace gas analysis, our services support robust quality control, reduce product waste, and help ensure regulatory compliance.
