As an accredited Lactose factory, we enforce strict quality protocols—every batch undergoes rigorous testing to ensure consistent efficacy and safety standards.
| Packing | Lactose, 500g, is packaged in a sealed, moisture-resistant, white HDPE bottle with a tamper-evident cap and labeled for laboratory use. |
| Container Loading (20′ FCL) | Container Loading (20′ FCL) for Lactose: Typically 18-20 metric tons packed in 25kg or 50kg bags, palletized for safe transport. |
| Shipping | Lactose should be shipped in tightly sealed containers, protected from moisture and excessive heat. It is generally classified as a non-hazardous, non-flammable material. Transport in accordance with local, national, and international regulations. Ensure packaging prevents contamination and labels are clear. Store and ship separately from strong oxidizers or reactive chemicals. |
| Storage | Lactose should be stored in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from moisture and incompatible substances. Keep it away from strong acids and oxidizing agents. Protect from direct sunlight and sources of heat. For laboratory use, store at room temperature, observing standard chemical storage practices to prevent contamination and degradation. |
| Shelf Life | Lactose typically has a shelf life of 24–36 months when stored in a cool, dry place in a tightly sealed container. |
