BS EN 22872:1993 Complete, filled transport packages. Method for determination of resistance to compression

This International Standard specifies two methods for testing complete, filled transport packages for compression resistance.
The test may be used to assess the performance of a package in terms of its strength or of the protection it offers to its contents when it is subjected to compressive forces. It may be performed either as a single test to investigate the effects (defor mation, collapse or failure) of compression or as part of a se- quence of tests designed to measure the ability of a package to withstand a distribution system that includes a compression hazard.
NOTE- A test method using a compression tester to determine the stacking resistance of a package is given in ISO 2874,
