THE latest bottle pressure tester from Agr*TopWave goes beyond conventional pressure and volume expansion data by providing material utilisation and predicted shelf-life characteristics of individual PET containers.
This capability has been created by teaming the new PPT3000 tester with elements of the M-Rule container performance model developed by Container Science.
