• Simplest, lowest cost • In most basic form, require only

Drop tests Repetitive shock “vibration”

tests

Effectiveness of Non-Simulation Tests ISTA estimates these tests have been

conducted over 500,000 times 60 year history of helping to prevent

damage in shipment But not simulations of the distribution

environment: “Not designed to simulate environmental occurrences” [ISTA “Guidelines”]

Tailors tests to different transport modes and situations

Covers all typical damage-producing hazards (shock, vibration, compression, atmospheric)

Puts the hazards in realistic sequence Generally simulates real-world intensities

and conditions

Effectiveness of General Simulation 20+ year history of helping to control both

packaging costs and transport damage Can be effective in “subtle” situations – hidden

damage, marginal designs, product fragility issues, etc.

Can be used to assess possible over-packaging
