Storage and transport are specified at −18℃, the point where water is almost fully frozen and recrystallization is slow; every rise above it adds cumulative damage. Shelf life is not given in our general content; it is confirmed per item in the quotation, so ask for the figure for the exact SKU and pack you plan to list.
Key Facts & Technical Parameters
- Storage & Transport Temperature: Maintained strictly at −18℃ across the supply chain, supported by insulated packaging and continuous monitoring to mitigate cumulative temperature fluctuations.
- The Science of −18℃: At −18℃, water within the ice cream matrix is nearly fully frozen, keeping recrystallization minimal and preserving the intricate 3D molded structure.
- Cumulative Damage of Fluctuations: Any temperature rise above −18℃ accelerates ice crystal growth and destabilizes the emulsion system. These structural damages to frozen novelties are entirely irreversible.
- Shelf Life Specifics: Because shelf life varies according to formulation (dairy versus plant-based variants), packaging formats, and specific SKU configurations (such as standard single-unit weights of 65–75g), it is not a blanket figure and must be verified directly against the official quotation for your exact list.
