Testing the Quality of Packaging Straps Before Export

For exporters, packaging failure can mean damaged goods and financial loss. That’s why quality testing of straps is non-negotiable before shipment.

1. Tensile Strength Test

  • Measures the maximum load capacity.

  • Ensures straps won’t snap under heavy cargo.

2. Elongation Test

  • Determines stretchability of PET/PP straps.

  • Prevents over-tightening or breakage.

3. Joint Strength Test

  • Tests the strength of welded or sealed strap joints.

  • Weak joints = high risk of cargo failure.

4. Weather & UV Resistance Test

  • Essential for straps used in outdoor storage or long sea voyages.

  • PET straps with UV coating perform best.

5. ISO / ASTM Standards Compliance

  • International buyers prefer certified straps.

  • Testing ensures compliance with global standards.

Conclusion

By testing straps before export, exporters can reduce risks, save costs, and build buyer trust. At Ventora, every batch undergoes strict quality control.
