Jams Packaging Testing Instruments

Jams and jelly have a different ingredient composition, which requires packaging material that is inert and unreactive. In jam packaging, the right mixture of acid, sugar, and pectin is required to achieve the needed gel structure. The rapid boiling is required to remove water quickly, to concentrate the mixture before it darkens and loses its ability as a gel. The acidic part can react with packaging materials such as plastic and metal, which can alter the flavour, taste, and quality of the product apart from affecting the health of consumers negatively. This problem can be corrected by just using a glass jar for packaging jam/jelly.

Glass jars have the quality of being extremely heat resistant, the jam product packed in it stays the way it was supposed to be even at very high temperatures like 400 C. The glass jars also need bear sudden temperature variation as it suitably transfers heat for the product. Hence, manufacturers who sell their jam products in regions where temperatures reach exceptionally high levels, the glass is only material that can enhance the shelf life of their products. Jams Packaging Testing Instruments are the best option used to test the quality of packaging so that manufacturers can ensure better protection to the product.
