Temperature guidance

Maintaining appropriate and consistent temperature is important for product quality.

  • Room temperature: – Avoid prolonged storage at room temperature.

  • Frozen storage: -20°C (-4°F) or below

Avoid repeated warming, cooling, or freeze–thaw cycles, as temperature fluctuations may affect stability.

Fridge vs freezer
