ASTM D781 Compression Strength of Paperboard Laboratory Testing Service

the Benefits, Requirements, and Methodology of this Critical Test

The ASTM D781 compression strength of paperboard testing service is a critical evaluation method used to assess the compressive strength of paperboard products. This test is governed by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), which is one of the leading standard development organizations in the world.

International and National Standards

  • The relevant international standard is ASTM D781, which specifies the test method for compression strength of paperboard.

  • The national standards that apply to this testing service are ISO 3789, EN 1656, and TSE 1111, among others.

  • Standard development organizations such as ASTM, ISO, and CEN play a crucial role in developing and updating these standards.

    • Standard Compliance Requirements

  • Compliance with relevant standards is mandatory for industries that require paperboard products to meet specific performance criteria.

  • Non-compliance can result in product rejection, recalls, or even legal consequences.

  • Standard compliance requirements vary across industries, but ASTM D781 is widely accepted as a benchmark for paperboard products.

    • Industry-Specific Examples and Case Studies

  • The packaging industry requires paperboard products to withstand compression forces during transportation and storage.

  • The construction industry relies on paperboard products for roofing and insulation applications, where compressive strength is critical.

  • The printing industry uses paperboard for cardboard boxes, cartons, and other containers that require specific compression strengths.

    • Standard Evolution and Updates

  • Standards evolve as new technologies and materials emerge.

  • Regular updates ensure that testing methods remain relevant and effective.

  • Industry stakeholders must stay informed about standard changes to maintain compliance.
