STORAGE

Being perishable, all vegetable oil should be protected from exposure to heat, light and oxygen. To maximize shelf life, do not break the container seal until ready to utilize the oil. Once the container is opened, the protective Nitrogen blanket will be lost and the oil should then be utilized as quickly as possible. Once opened, keep the container tightly closed when not in use. We recommend that containers be stored at cool temperatures, out of direct sunlight and away from boilers or other heat emitting equipment. Direct exposure to natural or artificial light (especially fluorescent) is very detrimental to the stability of vegetable oil and should be avoided.

13° C (55° F)
