Shelf life is conditional on storage
A twelve-month shelf life declared at 25 °C and 60% relative humidity means little in a 40 °C tropical warehouse. Match the declared conditions to the actual destination, or shorten the working assumption accordingly.
Remaining shelf life at delivery is the number that matters
Production date, not delivery date, starts the clock. Long ocean voyages and port congestion can consume a large share of a premix's usable life before it reaches the mill. Specify minimum remaining shelf life on arrival.
常见行业参考值
| Oilseed meals | 3–6 months | Moisture and temperature dependent |
| Vitamin premixes | 6–12 months | Shorter with choline chloride or trace minerals present |
| Fish meal (antioxidant treated) | 6–12 months | |
| Synthetic amino acids | 24 months+ | Stable when dry and sealed |
Indicative industry reference values for orientation only — always contract against the delivered lot.

常见问题
How much remaining shelf life should be specified?
Enough to cover inland transit, storage and full consumption with margin — commonly at least two-thirds of total shelf life remaining on arrival for premixes and vitamins.

Packaging is a technical specification: material, weight, liner, sealing, palletisation and marking determine whether the product arrives at specification and can be traced and handled safely.
