InstrumentstestingSensorsGasses and vapoursConsultancy

 

Versaperm manufactures gas permeability testing equipment, offers a comprehensive permeability testing service and a materials consultancy. These are used to measure gas permeability and leakage, important in medical and pharmaceutical packaging, foils and films, coatings, food and confectionery packaging and contents, and many other applications.

Versaperm designs and manufactures instruments to meet each customer’s needs. Instruments are typically be based on a modular MkVI design.


Our laboratory testing service has over 30 years experience to enable us to choose the best technique to measure your sample's permeability both quickly and accurately.

 

Our diverse and growing range of sensors are based on fundamentally different and divergent physical principals. The choice of the right sensor for an application is critical in the successful deployment of the equipment. We are not tied to a sensor manufacturer.

At Versaperm we can measure the permeability for almost any gas / vapour including water vapour, Oxygen, CO2 Hydrogen, Helium, Nitrogen and Hydrocarbons.

Permeability is often the most critical factor in a material or component's performance. It determines how drugs to loose potency, food goes off, how paper both prints and jams in equipment, how seals work and it can even cause electronics to fail.

Our Consultancy division combines our theoretical and practical Permeability skills in instrument design and manufacture. Permeability Consultancy

Technical and Laboratory Consultancy

Permeability glitches are probably the world’s biggest cause of waste, failure and problems.  In the UK it costs billions of pounds a year in stale and wasted food alone.  It causes printers to jam, electronics to fail and drugs to lose potency.  It is even the reason why some materials print better than others.  Yet it is widely mis-understood.  

As a world technology leader in this field we offer a twin Permeability Consultancy – one half covering Permeability Materials and Problems, and the other offering a fast-turn-around Laboratory Permeability Measurement service.

Materials and Problems

This division specialises in the complex and technical areas of permeability - such as the correct choice and use of specialist materials - for example for MAP (Modified Atmosphere Packaging), drug packaging, building products and in coatings for specialty papers.

Permeability Consultancy

Our Permeability Consultancy division specialises in providing fast turn-around (often 24 hour) laboratory permeability measurement services.

We have several decades of technical experience alongside a deep and comprehensive understanding of the Physics of permeability and materials and are usually able to provide answers to problems quickly and efficiently.

The Versaperm Permeability Consultancy also advises on the testing, design and construction of materials, containers and other parts which can be critical to customers’ product’s success. Also, we can design instruments to meet specific testing needs and specifications and needs and are able to take concepts to production on an OEM basis.
