Make your labels scuff-proof with Presto scuff resistance tester

When products are transported from one place to another place, they are printed with some details or labelled with stickers. The labels have information about the product like product name, quantity, date of manufacturing and expiry, composition and much more.

Due to rubbing against surfaces at the time of transport, the label may get cleared losing all the information about the parcel.

Presto scuff tester for printed materials will easily test the scuff resistance of materials and check the quality of samples when two printed surfaces are rubbed against each other.

You can easily analyze the life of printed materials with the help of this quality testing equipment.
