What is a Scuff Resistance Tester?
-
A Scuff Resistance Tester is a testing device designed to assess the abrasion resistance of packaging materials by simulating real-world scuffing conditions. It evaluates how well a surface can withstand rubbing forces without significant deterioration.
Scuffing occurs when two surfaces come into repeated contact, causing gradual wear over time. This can negatively impact brand identity, regulatory compliance, and customer experience. Using a Scuff Resistance Tester, manufacturers can enhance product packaging, prevent print degradation, and ensure consistent quality.
