Shelf LifeShelf Life

• Accelerated Shelf Life Study–Product is placed in 55° C ovens for fixed times that simulate 6 month, 12 month, 18 month, 24 month, and 30 month product aging. The material is then tested for performance to estimate shelf life.

• Real Time Shelf Life Study–Product is stored at room temperature and evaluated at six month intervals to confirm real shelf life. This study is repeated for every product at documented frequencies to update shelf life dating given to products
