Updates from the manufacturer:
Alconox Inc. is extending the shelf life of the below trademarked detergent. We have studied the stability of the detergent when used in accordance with our recommendations as set forth in our
Certificates of Analysis.
Detergent samples evaluated were found to continue to conform to the acceptance criteria for a minimum of 3 years (36 months) of storage in containers that are closed after the seal is broken, and
when not in use, stored upright in a cool dry place (15 -30°C or 60 - 90°F).
Thus, Detonox® detergent (2301-1, 2305, 2355) will have a 36-month (3 year) shelf life.
