Leak Detection Associates manufactures high sensitivity leak detection systems for the pharmaceutical, medical device and food industries. Using helium as a tracer gas, packages can be quantitatively tested to levels far exceeding vacuum bubble/dye penetration tests and pressure/vacuum decay methods. Quantitative leak data allows direct comparison across various packaging materials/forms, production line settings, and stability storage conditions. The technology and equipment can be used for package design, tooling qualification, production line setup and on-going product quality monitoring.
