Product in seal
Product in seal contamination is one of the most common and costly issues in heat-sealed packaging production. Even the smallest amount of product trapped within the seal area can lead to contamination, reduced shelf life and rejected products. At Qipack, we help manufacturers detect and prevent product in seal defects through advanced inspection technology. Our systems continuously monitor the sealing process in real time, allowing packaging defects to be identified immediately during production.

What is product in seal?
Product in seal refers to product residue or contamination trapped between packaging materials during the heat-sealing process. This contamination prevents the seal from closing properly, resulting in weak or incomplete seals.
Product in seal defects can be caused by:
- product overflow during filling
- inaccurate dosing
- high production speeds
- contamination within the seal area
- unstable production conditions
- incorrect sealing pressure or timing
Even when these defects are invisible to the naked eye, they can still lead to packaging failures and leakage problems later in the supply chain. Reliable product in seal detection is therefore critical for maintaining seal integrity and consistent packaging quality.
