Storage & Handling

Storage Information
  • Storage conditions: The product durability may vary according to packaging type and manufacturing plant. Proper information is shown on labelling and CoA.
  • Storage conditions for BULK material: ROQUETTE's liability is limited to reception of the product at the customer's site. The minimum durability of the bulk product depends on the customer's unloading and storage conditions.
  • Storage conditions for PACK material: To avoid crystallisation do not store at temperatures below 20 - 25 °C. Reheating at + 50 / 60 °C will dissolve the crystals and restore the solution to its original state without affecting the composition of the product. We recommend to preserve the product in its unopened original packaging, preferably protected from wide variations in temperature and humidity. Upon opening, use the product as quickly as possible to prevent moisture regain.
