Shelf Life Testing
'Use By' or 'Best Before'
The shelf life of a product is a key parameter that impacts on processing, distribution, stock management practises and economics. In many cases it is also a legal labelling requirement to state the 'Use By' or 'Best Before' date of your product.
We offer a comprehensive shelf life testing and validation service. Our shelf life analysis will give a clear picture of your product's expected shelf life, presented in an easy to understand format. In addition to performing the shelf life analysis, we can assist with formula modification to improve the product's shelf life, if necessary.
Accelerated Shelf Life Testing (ASLT)
During the development of a new product, or assessment of a reformulated product, it is often necessary to determine a product's shelf life. Formula Foods has developed effective and accurate techniques to accelerate product aging, allowing shelf life to be verified in a condensed time-frame, reducing time to market and the development life-cycle.
We have ASLT experience with a wide range of products and product types, for international clientele. To find out if ASLT is appropriate for your product type, please contact us to discuss your needs.
