Our laboratory
We investigate the quality of our products on every stage of the manufacturing process.
All measurements of packaging are carried on verified, specialist control and measuring equipment, in accordance with internally developed research methodologies and European quality standards.
DETAILED AROUND-THE-CLOCK QUALITY CONTROL
At every moment, on the basis of measurement cards, discrepancy logs, controllers’ questionnaires in an electronic system and archival sample, we are able to verify a course of every production process.
WALL THICKNESS MEASUREMENT
Measurement at every point of the packaging surface within 360 degrees scale.
FULL CONTROL
Internal control and external tests carried by accredited laboratories.
COLOUR MEASUREMENT
Measurement with the Xrite spectrophotometer.
ROUND-THE-CLOCK QUALITY CONTROLLING
Constant control (monitoring) of the product.
METERS AND SENSORS INSTALLED IN MACHINES
Controlling the level of numbers of particles in the air, differential pressure, humidity and temperature.
QUALITY CERTIFICATES
Certificates: ISO 9001, ISO 15378, ISO 15593.
MASTERCHEM LABORATORY
CONTROLLING RAW MATERIALS DELIVERIES
All starts of production and current production undergo the whole measurement cycle (measurement devices and manual verification) during the whole time of the given production process. In addition, our controllers take production samples for our archives twice a day.
In case of a raw material it is accordance of the delivery quality certificate, organoleptic evaluation, accordance with the pattern of the granules and the dying. In other aspects samples are measured and the tests arising from the specification, such as of the closures tightness, are performed. Each new type of the raw material, cardboard or foil, undergoes the stages of implementation and validation.
Using Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Good Hygienic Practice (GHP) in our plant ensures that packaging coming into contact with food manufactured by us are fully safe for the consumer. It is confirmed by certificates implemented in Masterchem Logoplaste.
ISO 15593:2008
Management of Hygiene in the Production of Packaging for Foodstuffs
WE CONSTANTLY MONITOR SIXTEEN PARAMETERS, WHICH GUARANTEE OUR QUALITY
We verify all parameters arising from the specification, as well as all crucial external dimensions determined in the technical drawing. Moreover, we test the tightness and durability of chosen packaging and closures, also those agreed with our Clients. All packaging produced by our company undergoes a stage of product implementation, when potential defects and discrepancies are eliminated. As a result, the Client receives a verified and validated product.

KPI – Data for 2021*
100 thousand
control questionnaires
(on-the-job control at the machine)
20 thousand measurements of
dyeing verification
(on the spectrophotometer)
5 thousand tests of packaging
and closures tightness
12 thousand measurements
on GAWIS measurement systems
(external dimensions of packaging, sidewall thickness, material distribution)
100 new
implementations
(our own or the client’s)
Our chosen products hold Quality Certificates issued by The National Institute of Hygiene and The National Medicines Institute.
The Clean Room and suitable software allows to manufacture packaging designated for pharmaceutical industry, achieving the highest European standards (European Pharmacopoeia) related to the cleanliness of both the manufacturing environment and the final product. Setting strict alarms related to sensors and meters installed in the Clean Room allows to react quickly, before they are exceeded.
OUR MEASUREMENT DEVICES
We use precision measurement devices, among others:
- GAWIS measurement systems by AGR company.
- A measurement device for sidewall thickness of packaging, closures and preforms made of any kind of plastic.
- A machine to measure pressure strength, total capacity and fill level.
- A measurement machine for sidewall thickness of PET packaging.
- A machine to measure the sidewall thickness of the preforms.
- A spectrophotometer to evaluate colour conformity.
- A device to measure torsion forces (closing and opening closures).
- Four tightness chambers.
- Calipers and bore gauges.
- Devices to verify cleanliness classes of the Clean Room.
