MATERIAL-LAYER TECHNICAL DOSSIER
Water Interface
The true boundary between product and package, where heat, mass and migrating species are exchanged.

01 · PRINCIPLE & RATIONALE
Intended function
and associated requirement.
The true boundary between product and package, where heat, mass and migrating species are exchanged.
Separating this interface prevents coupon performance from being confused with the behaviour of a complete package in real water contact.
The interface governs wetting, adsorption, organoleptic properties, overall and specific migration, NIAS and thermal kinetics.
02 · TECHNOLOGY STACK
Technologies, roles
and approval gates.
Material and process qualification
- Role
- Converts the design basis into a repeatable specification.
- Why
- Performance depends on the real commercial grade and process window.
- Approval gate
- Documented test evidence and approved specification.
03 · ARCHITECTURE
Function, material
and interfaces.
The inner surface must remain continuous, cleanable, drainable and compatible with filling, closing and shelf life.
- Packaged water
- Primary wall L02
- Filling process
- Closure system
- 01Continuous surface
- 02Controlled surface-to-volume ratio
- 03No undrainable pockets
- 04Protocol covering simulants and real water
04 · MASTER PARAMETER REGISTER
Everything to be defined,
measured or certified.
A field without evidence is never filled with an invented number: it remains “To be determined”, together with the method required to close it. This is what makes the technical record verifiable.

Traceability
for every parameter.
Adds no mass, but determines which additives and processes are acceptable in the complete system.
This page is the technical register for the R2 configuration. It separates design values, targets, calculations, measurements and certifications. Open fields identify the exact test or document required to close them.
