Packaging Technologies & Inspection (PTI)Founded in 1984 by Tony Stauffer, Hawthorne-based Packaging Technologies & Inspection (PTI) engineers non-destructive inspection systems that measure package leak, seal and container-closure integrity. Its research-driven work spans the package lifecycle, from laboratory method development and validation to automated production-line testing for life-science and other high-risk packaging. PTI’s VeriPac vacuum-decay instruments helped establish ASTM F2338, while its proprietary airborne-ultrasound platform addresses seal defects that conventional leak tests can miss.HAWTHORNE, NY
