This workshop will explore how shelf life is determined and managed across different food products, using practical examples to highlight common challenges and potential solutions. Participants are encouraged to come prepared with insights into their own shelf-life testing to enrich discussion.
Topics will include shelf-life testing methods, formulation strategies (natural and preservative-based), and the critical role packaging plays in protecting freshness by managing factors like moisture, oxygen, and light exposure. Food safety and regulatory considerations will also be integrated throughout to support both compliance and brand integrity.
