# Sugar syrup shelf life in warm warehouses: 6 or 12 months?

Suppliers quote shelf lives of 6 to 12 months for the same glucose syrup, and the difference usually comes down to storage conditions rather than the product. In a warm, humid warehouse, real life is tougher than the datasheet.

- What shelf life do you actually get in your climate?
- Do you refrigerate, or manage with turnover and FIFO?
- Have you seen colour or flavour change before the stated date?
