Protect your freeze-dried products with container integrity testing

Hello from the B.E. Exchange team,

Freeze drying is an excellent preservation process for foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

Freeze drying ensures your product:

• maintains its structural integrity
• is easy to handle and transport
• is shelf stable
• and can be easily re-hydrated and restored to its original form

Because freeze drying facilitates the storage and transport of delicate materials, it is a natural fit for pharmaceuticals, such as vaccines. But to realize the full benefits of freeze drying, ensuring container integrity is key.

Appropriate methods of container integrity testing for freeze-dried products include:

• headspace gas analysis
• automatic visual inspection
• vacuum decay

Bonfiglioli Engineering understands the specialized needs of freeze-dried products and offers container integrity testing equipment capable of performing a variety of testing methods.
