Overview - EN ISO 7965-1:2024 (Packaging - Drop test - Part 1: Paper sacks)
EN ISO 7965-1:2024 / ISO 7965-1:2024 specifies a method for vertical impact testing of filled paper sacks by dropping. The standard is intended to assess how a paper sack responds to a vertical impact - either as a single investigation or as part of a sequence that simulates a distribution system including vertical impact hazards. It defines the test principle, required apparatus, sampling/conditioning, test procedures, methods for presenting results, and the content of the test report.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope: Tests apply specifically to filled paper sacks to evaluate resistance to vertical impacts during distribution.
- Principle: A filled sack is released from a predetermined height to strike a rigid, horizontal impact surface; drop height and package orientation are set in advance.
- Apparatus essentials (Clause 5):
- Means to set and ensure correct drop height
- Lifting arrangement that does not damage the sack
- Platform and release mechanism ensuring unobstructed fall
- Impact surface: horizontal, flat and rigid
- Sampling and conditioning:
- Sampling for average quality follows ISO 7023
- Paper sacks are conditioned for testing as described in ISO 6599-1 due to paper’s hygroscopic nature (Clause 7)
- Test procedures (Clause 8–9):
- Filling and placement rules before dropping
- Methods include progressive drop height and constant drop height
- Tests may be performed as flat or butt impacts (side constant-height test excluded for constant method)
- Reporting of sack breakage and other outcomes
- Test report: Clause 10 lists required information to present results consistently.
Applications and who uses this standard
- Packaging designers and material engineers validating paper sack strength and design.
- Quality control and testing laboratories conducting routine drop testing and supplier acceptance tests.
- Logistics, warehousing and distribution planners simulating handling impacts in supply chains.
- Manufacturers and purchasers specifying performance criteria for sacks in supplier contracts.
- Regulatory and compliance teams ensuring packaging meets recognized test methods.
Related standards
- ISO 2248 (basis for the method)
- ISO 6590-1 (sacks vocabulary and types)
- ISO 6599-1 (conditioning for testing - paper sacks)
- ISO 7023 (sampling empty sacks)
This standard helps ensure consistent, repeatable drop test results for paper sacks, supporting risk reduction in handling and distribution and enabling clear technical specifications for packaging performance.

The SIST EN ISO 7965-1:2024 standard delivers a comprehensive methodology for assessing the durability of filled paper sacks through vertical impact testing. The document aims to identify the resilience of paper sacks when subjected to drop tests, simulating conditions that mimic real-world distribution systems that may include hazardous vertical impacts. One of the significant strengths of this standard is its well-defined scope, which not only clarifies the testing procedure but also aligns closely with industry needs for ensuring product integrity during transport. This specification recognizes and addresses the importance of performance under specific conditions, offering businesses a reliable framework for evaluating product packaging. Additionally, the explicit focus on paper sacks sets this standard apart, ensuring that the unique properties and handling of this packaging material are taken into account during testing. By also referencing ISO 2248, the standard builds upon established international practices while tailoring the guidelines specifically for paper sacks, enhancing its relevance and applicability within the industry. Ultimately, the SIST EN ISO 7965-1:2024 standard empowers manufacturers and distributors to assess and improve the performance of their packaging solutions, thus contributing to higher standards of safety and reliability in product distribution. The comprehensive nature of the testing procedure outlined in this document ensures that stakeholders are equipped with the necessary knowledge to maintain quality control and optimize packaging design for resilience during the delivery process.

SIST EN ISO 7965-1:2024 표준 문서는 종이 자루의 수직 충격 테스트를 위한 방법을 규명하며, 이는 포장재의 안전성과 내구성을 평가하는 데 핵심적인 역할을 합니다. 이 표준은 충격을 조사하기 위해 단일 테스트로 수행할 수 있으며, 또한 유통 시스템 내에서 수직 충격 위험을 견딜 수 있는 능력을 측정하기 위한 일련의 테스트 중 하나로 실시될 수 있습니다. 이 표준의 강점은 포장된 물체가 실제 유통 과정에서 경험할 수 있는 다양한 충격에 대한 저항력을 평가할 수 있는 구조적인 테스트 절차를 제시한다는 점입니다. 이를 통해 제조업체는 자루의 설계와 재료를 개선하고, 최종 소비자에게 안전하고 신뢰할 수 있는 제품을 제공할 수 있습니다. 또한 SIST EN ISO 7965-1:2024 표준은 테스트 결과를 어떻게 제시할지를 명확히 규정하고 있어, 품질 보증을 위한 참고 자료로서의 가치가 큽니다. ISO 2248을 기반으로 하지만, 특히 종이 자루에 맞춤화되어 있어 더욱 관련성이 높습니다. 이는 종이 자루에 대한 구체적인 테스트 절차와 기대되는 성능에 대한 기준을 제공하여, 산업 전반에서 그룹간 호환성과 신뢰성을 높이는 데 기여합니다. 결론적으로, SIST EN ISO 7965-1:2024는 포장 산업에서 종이 자루의 충격 저항 능력을 체계적으로 평가할 수 있는 중요한 표준으로, 실질적인 적용 가능성과 유용성을 갖추고 있습니다.
