Storage

Ship and store in a cool, dry environment at temperatures less than 27°C and relative humidity less than 65%. The shelf life of non-instant nonfat dry milk powder is 12-18 months; instant is 6-12 months. Note that storage life is very dependent on storage conditions, and that this figure is only a guide. Under ideal conditions, non-instant nonfat dry milk powder can retain its physical and functional properties for at least two years; however, quality will be impaired if temperatures and humidity are too high and storage is extended.
