For more than 20 years RDM Test Equipment has been the leading manufacturer and supplier of materials testing equipment to the flexible packaging industry.

Specialising in ‘heat seal threshold’ test equipment a range of accurate machines will establish the heat seal ability of packaging materials by accurately setting temperature, pressure and dwell time.

Our range of Seal Strength Tester and Tensile testers will measure the strength of the seal and perform tensile/compressive tests on most materials and packages.

Efficient running of packaging material on packaging machines is measured with our Coefficient of Friction Tester operating to industry standards.
