Konstantina Karagkika from Innocent Drinks will discuss shelf life testing from a technical manager’s perspective and Carolin Edinger Anton-Paar will talk about rapid shelf life testing of foods/oils and fats. Helen White, special advisor at WRAP will chair the event.

Delegates will learn what to consider when using sustainable packaging and the potential effects on product shelf life.
