Acceptance and preference tests help to develop packagings that appeal to consumers. And, as ecological and environmental aspects become more and more important, it is worthwhile to carry out these tests before investing in expensive production machinery.

For these services, ivm has developed assessment tools that enable our customers to develop products that meet specific market requirements. Moreover, these tools make it possible to find out which price consumers would be willing to pay for intelligent packaging solutions. The techniques are based on latest psychological findings, such as the KANO method, which yields very precise, clear-cut results. Due to the services of well-trained call center staff specialized in consumer interviewing, evaluation results can be made available as quickly and as reasonably priced as possible.

Due to our cooperation with globally operating companies for packaging development we are in a position to offer customers who do not have an in-house development team the benefit of professional, custom-made packaging solutions.
