ABOUT ISTA
ISTA is an organization focusing on the specific concerns of transport packaging. They have developed the industry standards for test procedures that define and measure how packages should perform to full integrity of the contents. ISTA’s published series of standards and testing protocols provides a uniform basis for the safety and evaluation of packaging performance under various real-life conditions during handling and transit.
About ASTM
ASTM’s paper and packaging standards are instrumental in the evaluation and testing of the physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of various pulp, paper, and paperboard materials that are processed primarily to make containers, shipping boxes and parcels, and other packaging and labeling products. These standards help to identify materials characteristics that help users of paper materials and products in the proper processing and assessment procedures to ensure their quality towards efficient commercial use.
