Services in packaging

From chemical analysis and food safety to transport testing and PPWR compliance, RISE offers services that ensure your packaging meets legal requirements and performs throughout the entire chain. We help you navigate complex regulations and develop sustainable solutions.

Durability of sterile packages

ASTM F1980 is commonly referred to, not only for sterile barriers but for many accelerated ageing studies.

PPWR – We Help You Tick the Boxes

The PPWR (Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (EU) 2025/40) introduces extensive new requirements – both in design and material selection – for nearly all packaging. Depending on your needs, RISE offers various services.

Risk assessment of “NIAS-screening”

Product safety is an issue of very high concern for all kinds of materials and products. One of RISE´s core activities in this area is analyses of packaging and materials intended for food contact (FCM).

Evaluation of functional barriers in food contact materials

Packaging intended for contact with food (FCM) must be safe for use (according to Framework Regulation EG no 1935/2004). At the same time, there are many demands for the use of recycled material in packaging. A solution can be to use functional barriers.

Analysis of PFAS in food contact materials

Per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) is a class of chemicals found in, among other things, food contact materials, and they have garnered increasing attention as they are ubuiquitous, persistent and could have adverse effects on human health and the environment.

Analysis of metals in food contact materials

Food contact safety is an issue of very high concern for all kinds of materials and products. Our core activity in this area is analysis of materials intended for food contact (FCM).

Dangerous gods - Testing and quality assurance of transport packages

To ensure that safety demands are fullfiled in transport of dangerous goods a serie of international regulations has been created. This regulates the need of approved packages and containers. We test, approve and assure quality for packages, containers and other transport devices to be used for tra…

Contact angle measurements

Contact angle measurements enable studies of the interaction between a liquid and a solid. The method is among other things used for studies of adhesion, cleaning, absorption of liquid in a porous material, or for characterization of the wettability of a coating. Contact angle measurements also ena…

Optical surface analysis

Characterisation of optical properties of materials using UV-VIS-NIR and FT-IR spectroscopy.

Transport testing according to ASTM D4169

The laboratory at RISE Packaging Excellence Centre is certified by ISTA and is one of the most well equipped and advanced laboratories in all of Scandinavia. We specialize in simulating various transport conditions according to international standards to ensure that your packaging protects the prod…

Sensory Analysis - Introductory course in Sensory Methods

A 2 day practical introduction to sensory analysis! The course will give you a basic understanding of sensory methods and analysis.

e-mark

The e-mark functions as a passport within the EU's common market and extra checks are avoided. Overfilling of packaging is reduced by systematic handling of the manufacturing process, which leads to economic benefits.

Primary aromatic amines, PAA

Food contact safety is an issue of very high concern for all kinds of materials and products. Our core activity in this area is analysis of materials intended for food contact (FCM).

Overall migration from materials to food

Food contact safety is an issue of very high concern for all kinds of materials and products. Our core activity in this area is analysis of materials intended for food contact (FCM).

Bisphenol A in materials in contact with food

Food contact safety is an issue of very high concern for all kinds of materials and products. Our core activity in this area is analysis of materials intended for food contact (FCM).
