These checkpoints help to identify minor, major, or serious defects in the lot. The company has the goodwill of providing the Kraft paper pouches with 0% defect.
Some of the checkpoints are mentioned below to pass the pouches before dispatching them to their destinies.
Flexibility Check:
Every pouch is designed for a specific weight. And to bear the weight, the walls of the paper pouch must be flexible. In case there is less flexibility and elasticity in the walls of the paper, then the internal force applied by the packed item can tear the paper and it can lead to spillage and loss of packed item.
Tearing Check:
The next step that needs a blue tick is the tearing check. We don’t know that sometimes we unknowingly keep our pouches with any sharp or pointed object, or sometimes anything gets pricked into the pouch accidentally.
It can create a gateway for the air and moisture to reach the packed stuff. For this purpose, there must be a test for the limit that how much external pressure it can tolerate. The thickness of the paper decides the limit.
If the product is ok then it will be dispatched to its destiny.
Drop Test:
Accidents can happen and it can lead to the bursting of the paper pouch and the loss of expensive food items packed in it. The most common accident is dropping off the bags from a height.
While loading, unloading or placing on the shelves, the bags may slip from our hand accidentally. The fall can cause the bursting of the paper pouch that is loaded with pulses, coffee beans, or sugar. So what you can do in that case?
There is a test of dropping the paper pouch from a fixed height loaded with weight to check the limit.
Sealing of Zipper :
Sealing is the thing that matters most in the test checks. If the bag is not sealed properly, then your packed item may spoil in a shorter span as the moisture, microbes, and air pollutants are approaching the packed item.
Whether it is vertically sealed or horizontally sealed, there is a proper check that no air enters or escapes the pouch.
A weak seal can break anytime and your packed item may scatter in on the floor. If the pouch fails to pass the test, then it is separated from the shipping lot.
Testing for the Aroma Sealing:
When you open your Kraft paper pouch, you smell the unique aroma of the packed item. It is ensured that the specific fragrance of the packed item doesn’t escape from the bag when packing it.
