Unique in Canada, the CARTIER laboratory allows you to optimize your packaging by simulating the complete journey of your packages and the impacts they must withstand.
Thanks to ISTA and ASTM standards and some of the most sophisticated simulation equipment, we will determine whether your packaging is underwrapped or overwrapped.
