Unpacking New Products and Team Wins in 2023

As the industry leaders in permeation and package testing for nearly six decades, we’re proud to close out another year and celebrate our team’s success in 2023 as we plan for 2024.

In Q1, we launched our MultiCheck 2, a headspace analyzer specifically and uniquely designed for the coffee industry. Manufacturers who need to ensure their packaging is up to industry standards use MultiCheck 2 to make sure the flavor and smell of their high-quality coffees are preserved throughout shipping and merchandising. Unlike other headspace analyzers, the MultiCheck 2 has sensors and filters specifically designed for coffee package testing. Its available valve testing unit can even confirm proper degassing, checking for leaks and proper release action all while conducting its analysis 50% faster than previous designs.

Q2 brought our new eCommerce platform to life, allowing our U.S. customers to seamlessly browse, select and purchase new instruments. They can even order replacement or extra parts for instruments they already own. Customers can also view their order history to easily order the correct replacement parts and supplies without worrying about choosing the wrong products. As we strive to continue serving our customers in a virtual world, we’re proud of the way our new webstore has provided a straightforward customer experience.

At the close of the year, we introduced our CheckMate 4, which provides versatile package testing that meets your specific needs. With single and multi-package spot testing as well as interval-measurement shelf life testing, CheckMate 4 gives you the confidence your packaging will keep your product fresh. Plus, its continuous-mode testing capability lets you determine if your packaging gas mix needs to be adjusted. With accessories ranging from the SmartPen needle, a barcode scanner for fast access to product test settings, and a can piercer to measure headspace gas in cans, bottles and other similar containers, the CheckMate 4 is a one-stop shop for your headspace testing needs.

It goes without saying, but none of this year’s exciting accomplishments would have happened without our team of dedicated, fantastic employees. Throughout the year, we’ve celebrated numerous milestones, with employees celebrating 25, and even 40 years working for AMETEK MOCON! Our rich history in this industry began in 1966, and nearly six decades later, we have become a global leader in gas detection and analysis.

Just as our employees play a key role in our success, so too do our customers. One of our favorite parts of our work is getting to learn from our customers at industry trade shows. Their insightful feedback helps us make every new product we release even better.

We’re excited for all the new year has to offer. From continuing to innovate (watch for exciting announcements in 2024) to constantly seeking new and more effective ways to maintain dialogs with our customers to better understand their needs and how best to serve them, the future for AMETEK MOCON looks very bright!
