luftdichte Verpackung ? Explanation: I'm just guessing, but that seems to be the only context that makes sense here. You'd obviously want your cosmetics product sealed air tight in order to ensure a reasonable shelf-life. See also Langenscheidt Fachwörterbuch Biotechnologie. Hope this helps. Good luck. |

Luftdurchlässigkeit Explanation: Although air tight means luftdicht, air tightness is usually translated with Luftdurchlässigkeit ( http://www.juzo.de/phlebo-97/vortrag/v34.html ) rather than the longer Luftundurchlässigkeit or Luftdichte (as the latter means air density).
