What shelf life does a biodegradable and compostable Packaging have?

22 Feb.,2024

 

It is essential to keep the material in its original packaging and away from any heat source or direct sunlight. Storage in low humidity environments and temperatures between 17ºC and 25ºC is recommended. When the temperature of the storage place is lower than the one of the place of use, it is recommended to condition the film for at least 24 hours at the place where it will be used. Avoid during the handling of coils, maneuvers or blows that may damage or deteriorate the material and/or inner core.

All our raw material suppliers indicate an expiration date of six months on their technical data sheet. This date of, that we transfer to our technical documentation is, in reality, only a guarantee limit. The reasons for having this guarantee are:

– Ensure that the customer keeps the material in good storage conditions.

– Establish a time limit for possible claims arising from poor storage.

But, in reality, materials NEVER EXPIRE.
