It depends on the cat food you plan to sell (dry or wet). In fact, the shelf life of any product depends upon the nature of the product. Shampoos and liquid soaps will obviously last much longer than cat food.
A product's shelf life depends on a variety of factors including the presence of additives and water content. A dry product will have a longer shelf life than a wet product.
These flexible pouches are able to protect the contents from harmful UV rays, air, water, moisture, dust, and germs. When the cat food is protected from all these harmful factors, its shelf life increases automatically. Another factor that affects the shelf life of any product is the way it is handled. Since standup pouches bear a lot of rough handling without any chance of tearing, they are better than other packaging methods.
That said, once you open the packet, air will enter it and start reacting with the food. Cat food exposed to air will certainly rot more quickly. Standup pouches have seals and zippers which limit its exposure to air. Consequently, cat food packaged in these flexible pouches will last longer than cat food packaged in other mediums.
Generally speaking, nutritious food products degrade faster, and cat food is no exception.
Wet cat food has a relatively short shelf life. Of course, the right packaging will increase it.
Our stand up bags are made of FDA approved materials which make them ideal for packaging food items including cat food.
