Research & Development: Packaging Science Built Into Every Solution
Turn Packaging Challenges into Engineered Solutions
Expertise That Helps You Solve Stability Challenges
The right active packaging solution starts long before a product reaches the production line.
For more than 65 years, Multisorb has combined packaging science, sorbent expertise, engineering, and real-world application knowledge to help brands and their manufacturers in Pharmaceutical, Diagnostics, Food, Nutraceuticals, Industrial, Defense and more, to solve complex moisture and oxygen control challenges.
Our Research & Development team works alongside customers to understand the product, package, environment, and shelf-life requirements—then uses data, simulation, and testing to develop a solution designed for the application.

Research & Development Designed Around Your Product

Understand the Product
Evaluate product characteristics, degradation pathways, moisture sensitivity, oxygen sensitivity, and desired shelf.

Understand the Packaging
Packaging materials, headspace, seal integrity, package size, and configuration can all influence the environment inside the package.

Model the Environment
Advanced simulation helps predict how moisture and oxygen behave within the package over time.

Engineered Solution
Our scientists and engineers use the results to identify the appropriate sorbent technology, size, formulation, and format.

Test & Validate
Testing helps confirm performance and provides data to support development decisions.

Scale With Confidence
Support the transition from development through production with packaging, dispensing, and technical expertise.

The Right Active Packaging Starts With the Right Science
Not every product responds to its environment in the same way. Moisture, oxygen, packaging materials, storage conditions, and shelf-life requirements can all influence product stability.
Multisorb’s R&D team brings together sorbent science, packaging expertise, simulation, and testing to help determine the right technology for each application.

Moisture Control
Desiccants help manage moisture within a package to protect products from moisture-related degradation, clumping, potency loss, and other quality challenges.
Multisorb’s R&D expertise helps determine the appropriate desiccant technology, capacity, and format based on the specific product and packaging environment.

Oxygen Control
Oxygen can contribute to oxidation, degradation, discoloration, off-flavors, and other quality concerns.
Multisorb’s oxygen absorber technologies are designed to help create a controlled package environment based on the product’s oxygen sensitivity and shelf-life requirements.

Packaging Formats
How an active packaging technology is delivered can be just as important as what is inside it. Packets, canisters, adhesive formats, and other configurations offer different advantages depending on the product, package, and manufacturing process.
Multisorb’s R&D and engineering teams can help identify the format and delivery method that best fits your application.
