Sealing Technology For Packaging Processes

About the Seminar

The Sealing Technology for Packaging Processes two-day training course is designed to give engineers a complete understanding of the various techniques for applying heat to flexible and semi-rigid packaging in order to achieve quality seals. A quality seal is critical for product protection from environmental conditions that can lower return levels, shorten shelf life, and hasten spoilage. Positive brand quality perception and tamper prevention also result directly from safe, well designed sealing. This two day seminar covers various sealing technologies, seal testing procedures, adhesive sealing, polymer film and foil characteristics and process / package validation.

Who Should Attend

Any personnel in the R&D, testing, process, design, fabrication and manufacturing of food, pharmaceutical, medical, cosmetic, chemical, veterinary or industrial product packaging can benefit from this unique course. Packaging, film and foil personnel will also benefit from this comprehensive training course.
