- Storage & Handling Information
- Store the material in a clean, dry place at 20 - 40°C away from direct heat and sunlight.

- Since product is hygroscopic in nature, moisture content may increase if exposed to atmosphere, but does not affect preservation properties. Once carboy / IBC is opened, consume the product within a week.
- Product solidifies, if stored below 14°C for prolonged time. If solidifies, it is recommended to heat ISO containers with hot water or steam with 1.0 - 1.5 kg / cm² pressure through jacket to bring the temperature of product to 30 - 40°C.
- If the product becomes frozen in IBC / HMHDPE carboys then keep the same in hot room of 30 - 40°C (avoid direct heating).
- In original sealed condition, when stored as suggested, shelf life of the product is at least 2.5 years.
- During storage, stacking should be maximum 1+1 for IBC / HMHDPE carboys (palletized as well as non - palletized).
