ISTA Certification (International Safe Transit Association)

When it comes to protecting your products from damage in transit, it is essential to have the best quality packaging so that goods can reach their destination market in the same state they left the production line.

ISTA certification services from SGS test your products against ISTA standards to demonstrate to carriers that your packaging is of a sufficient standard and to give your products a level of protection that is greater than those of competitors who do not have the Transit Tested Certification Mark.
