Extended Storage Risk Mitigation Program

Comprehensive suite of services to detect and mitigate the risk of mold, rust, shrinkage, bacteria, ... for products having experienced extended storage

YOUR CHALLENGE

The storage conditions might increase the risk of contamination and deterioration of quality, which cause loss to the manufacturer.
