Safe packaging according to MIL-STD and ESD: requirements, risks and solutions

In sectors such as defence and high-tech, packaging is not an afterthought. Under extreme conditions, such as shocks, vibrations or electrostatic discharge, packaging has to comply with strict requirements as well as laws and regulations.

Packaging in demanding environments: no room for error

Shock, ESD, moisture, traceability: in critical sectors, one mistake is enough for damage, delay or rejection. That is why strict standards such as MIL-STD-810, ISO 28000 and ANSI/ESD S20.20 apply.

This white paper explains how to meet these requirements, focusing on:

  • packaging certified to MIL and ESD standards;
  • protection against extreme temperatures and shocks
  • traceability via RFID or GPS;
  • compliance and audit documentation via digital passports.

You can read how Faes develops customised packaging that protects and complies with all directives – first-time-right.

1
Intake
During an initial consultation, our packaging experts will identify your specific requirements. By discussing the criteria the packaging must meet, they can work with our engineers to develop a concept.
2
Concept
Is standard packaging an option, or is bespoke packaging required? This decision is made in consultation with the consultants and designers
3
Design
Based on the concept, you will receive a suitable proposal. Thanks to our short lines of communication, we can easily make adjustments whenever necessary. Are you happy with the advice? If so, we’ll work towards producing a prototype.
4
Prototype
Throughout the process, we present concepts digitally and, where necessary, submit 2D drawings for review. You and your project team members can provide feedback or approve them, ensuring that decisions are clearly documented and the review process runs efficiently.
5
Production
Once approval has been given, our skilled craftsmen get to work on producing the packaging. From closures to a fully bespoke interior: we ensure that all your requirements are carefully incorporated into the final solution.

Service
We remain involved even after delivery. We are happy to take care of all your packaging needs, so that you can count on our support for maintenance, modifications or more complex issues.
