shelf-life extension

Shelf-life extension refers to methods used to prolong the period during which a product remains safe to use, effective, and of quality. It involves techniques like improved packaging, preservatives, or storage conditions that slow down spoilage, degradation, or contamination. By extending shelf life, products can be kept fresh longer, reducing waste and increasing convenience for consumers and businesses. This process is common in food, pharmaceuticals, and other perishable items, ensuring they meet safety standards and maintain their intended benefits throughout their extended usability.
