Where OTR Testing Matters
The Systech 8101e OxySense® enables precise oxygen barrier analysis for food, pharma, electronics, and advanced packaging.
Flexible Packaging Films
Oxygen barrier testing for snacks, dry foods, and medical packaging films.
High-Barrier Coatings
Testing AlOx, SiOx, EVOH, and metallized films for ultra-low OTR applications.
Sustainable Packaging
OTR testing of biodegradable polymers, PLA, and compostable packaging for eco-friendly solutions.
Medical Devices
Sterile barrier OTR testing for medical device packaging, Tyvek pouches, and healthcare products.
R&D & New Materials
Development and qualification of new oxygen barrier materials and coatings.
For its R&D programme, sustainable flexible-packaging manufacturer TIPA selected the Systech 8101e OxySense® for its ease of operation, excellent sensitivity and reliability, and wide sensor range.
The Cost of Inadequate OTR Testing
Why leading brands choose Systech 8101e OxySense® over traditional OTR analyzers for oxygen barrier validation
Food and pharma recalls due to oxygen ingress cost manufacturers millions. Systech 8101e OxySense® detects OTR as low as 0.0002 cc/pkg·day—far more sensitive than traditional sensors.
Electronics and solar encapsulants failing OTR specs cause costly warranty claims. Systech 8101e OxySense® delivers results in under 4 hours with high precision vs traditional methods.
Traditional OTR analyzers require frequent calibration and have limited ranges. Systech 8101e OxySense® uses eMetric™ sensor technology with independent gas calibration, NIST traceable, and an ultra-wide range for superior barrier analysis.
