FAQ

What is the average shelf life of imported canned goods?

Shelf life ranges from 1 year to 5 years depending on the type of product and preservation technology. Metal cans with a protective coating provide longer storage compared to glass containers.

What new preservation technologies are used in imported products?

Manufacturers use aseptic preservation methods, which allow products to be preserved without the use of chemical preservatives. HPP (High Pressure Processing) is also used - processing products under high pressure.

What innovative packaging solutions are used?

New types of packaging with convenient Easy-open and Peel-off opening mechanisms have appeared. Some manufacturers use multilayer materials with UV protection and special coatings that prevent metal corrosion.

How do climatic conditions during transportation affect the quality of canned goods?

The temperature regime during transportation of canned goods should be maintained in the range from 0 to +25°C. Sharp temperature changes can lead to a breach of the tightness of the packaging and spoilage of the goods. Therefore, special thermal containers and refrigerators with a climate control system are used.
