We offer different models of burst testing machines and the most widely used is the digital bursting strength tester. 

Common challenges faced by manufacturers due to poor bursting strength of cardboard

1. Product damage: When cardboard packaging bursts or fails, the items inside can be damaged or broken. This can result in customer dissatisfaction and increased costs due to returns and replacements.
2. Shipping delays: Burst cardboard packaging can cause delays in shipping and delivery, as the damaged packages may need to be replaced or repackaged before they can be shipped.
3. Increased shipping costs: If a large number of packages burst during shipping, the shipping company may charge additional fees for damaged packages or require additional packaging materials to prevent future damage.
4. Environmental impact: Burst cardboard packaging can result in waste and environmental impact, as damaged packaging may need to be discarded or recycled.
5. Safety hazards: If the burst cardboard packaging contains hazardous materials, it can pose a safety hazard to workers and the environment.

To address these challenges, it is important to ensure that packaging materials are of high quality and suitable for the products being shipped and that they are properly tested and inspected before use. It is also important to use appropriate packaging techniques, to prevent damage during shipping.
