Can You Handle the Pressure? Take Our Packaging Quiz at PACK EXPO 2026

Last week we promised a challenge at our PACK EXPO booth. Here it is.

This year, the Teinnovations booth at PACK EXPO International comes with a quiz: Can You Handle the Pressure? It’s a quick test of your packaging know-how, and the top scorer each day walks away with a prize. Here’s how it works and how to get ready.

What is “Can You Handle the Pressure?”

It’s a fast, multiple-choice packaging quiz you can take right at Booth #W-43038. The questions cover the things we work on every day: films, containers, sealing, shelf life, food safety, and processes like modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and high pressure processing (HPP).

It starts easy and gets harder as you go. The early questions are fair game for anyone who has spent time around food production. The later ones will test people who live and breathe packaging specs. Whether you’re a plant manager, a buyer, an engineer, or just curious, you’ll find questions at your level and a few that push you.

How to win

• Take the quiz at our booth. It only takes a few minutes.
• Watch the live leaderboard. Every score goes up on the board so you can see where you stand.
• Top the board for the day. The highest score at the end of each show day wins a $250 gift card.
• Come back tomorrow. There’s a new winner every day, so you get a new chance with each visit. 

Warm up with three questions

Want a head start? Try these. Answers are at the bottom of the post.

1. What does MAP stand for?
2. What do barrier films mainly protect a product against?
3. What is lidding film used for?

These are some of the easier ones. The questions at the booth get tougher.

More reasons to stop by

The quiz is the fun part, but it’s not the only thing at our booth. While you’re there, you can:

• Try the “My Total Package Tool.”  Enter your product’s parameters, like what you’re packaging, how it’s processed, and how long it needs to last. The tool will suggest a matching combination of containers, film, and equipment.
• Handle the products. We’ll have trays, cups, containers, films, and tray sealers with optional MAP add-ons for you to see in person.
• Talk to our team. Teinnovations works from concept to commercialization across food, medical and sterile applications. We’re also SQF (Safe Quality Food) certified. Bring a spec sheet, a sample, or just a question and we’ll talk through it.
