Validating Sustainable Films for MAP

 

Summary

This customer case explains how a leading cheese producer used the GPX1500 Film Food to validate new recyclable mono layer films by monitoring oxygen behaviour in sealed MAP packages over time without destroying samples. It outlines how the non destructive laser based method enables repeated measurements on the same packs, supports comparisons between existing and sustainable materials, and provides objective trend data needed to understand barrier performance and packaging integrity. The document shows how R&D and quality teams can de risk material changes, strengthen decision making, and accelerate sustainability initiatives through a controlled, data driven evaluation process.

Technology

The Gasporox sensors and instruments are built on more than 25 years of development and refinement in industrial laser-based gas measurement. The system uses Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS), a highly reliable and precise method for non-destructive headspace gas analysis.

Developed by Gasporox in collaboration with its technology partners, this laser sensor technology is widely used in demanding industries such as pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and energy.

Gasporox’s laser-based headspace analysis has been successfully deployed for over a decade in pharmaceutical manufacturing. It is integrated into fully automated inspection systems and benchtop instruments for 100% in-line and laboratory testing of vials, ampoules, and other parenteral packaging formats. The performance and robustness of the system have been validated through extensive real-world use.
