ISTA 3E Testing Services
Unitized Loads of Same Product
ISTA test procedure 3E is a general simulation performance test for unitized loads comprised of either single or multiple products or packages of the same retail or institutional products. Unitized loads are one or more packaged products, typically on a skid or pallet, secured together or restrained for distribution as a single load. Unitized loads may be a stretched wrapped pallet load of individual packaged products, a single non-packed machine, component, or durable goods product banded to a pallet, and a pallet with a corrugated tray, tube, and a cap, and other similar packaging. Use ISTA test 3E to evaluate the protective performance of packaged products and load stability under the normal stresses encountered during handling and transportation and atmospheric conditions including temperature and humidity. Advance Packaging offers ISTA 3E testing through its independent ISTA-certified test laboratory.
- ISTA 3E evaluates the protective performance of packaged product related to vibration, shock, and other stresses typically encountered in the handling and transportation process, as well as load stability
- Testing is based on general data rather than any specific distribution system
