Custom Stability Testing for Food and Beverage Products

Darwin Chambers designs and installs custom stability walk-in environmental rooms and reach-in stability chambers for the food and beverage industry. When it comes to consumables, it's important to follow regulation requirements and thoroughly test your products for compliance and reliability.

Food and beverage stability testing considers various aspects of product safety while meeting regulatory standards. A few reasons our food and beverage stability chambers are used is to check for:

  • Expiration Dating (Shelf Life)
  • Optimal Storage Conditions
  • Regulatory Compliance
  • Accurate Labeling
  • Nutrient Stability
  • Packaging/Marketing Validation
  • New Product Development
  • Cost Savings

Developing and promoting new food and beverage products requires assurances that it's safe and cost-effective for the consumer.

Our advanced stability testing solutions are meticulously designed to comply with these rigorous standards. This includes matching FDA (U.S. Food & Drug Administration), DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration), and the ICH regulations. We ensure that your products are tested and stored under optimal conditions. We continuously stay updated with the latest regulations and guidelines to provide you with cutting-edge stability testing systems that meet all necessary compliance requirements. Our commitment to quality and precision guarantees that your products maintain their integrity, safety, and efficacy throughout their shelf life. From initial design to ongoing support, Darwin Chambers is dedicated to delivering solutions that enhance the reliability and performance of your stability testing processes. Contact our team now to learn more about food and beverage stability testing.

We utilize the latest technology for stability testing chambers (walk-in and reach-in). This allows research facilities, food scientists, universities, and others to test with accuracy and precision.

Our testing chambers and reach-ins are equipped to conduct both real-time and accelerated stability studies that are tailored to your specific requirements. Real-time stability testing mirrors the actual storage conditions to make sure the data collected is highly accurate and reflective of real-world scenarios. For products with urgent timelines, our accelerated testing can deliver preliminary data within a few months, providing an early indication of long-term stability.

Our Process

  • Consultation: We start with a detailed consultation to understand your food and beverage stability testing needs and challenges. Our experts work closely with you to assess your current setup and identify areas for improvement.
  • Design and Manufacture: Based on your requirements, we design and manufacture custom stability testing equipment. Our designs are tailored to meet your specific conditions and ensure optimal performance.
  • Installation: Our team handles the installation and initial setup, ensuring everything is calibrated and ready to go. We take care of every detail to guarantee a smooth and efficient installation process.
  • Training: We provide comprehensive training for your staff to ensure they are proficient in using the new equipment. Our training programs are designed to equip your team with the necessary skills and knowledge.
  • Ongoing Support: We offer continuous support and maintenance to keep your systems operating at peak efficiency. Our dedicated support team is always available to assist you with any issues or questions.

Stability testing usually takes between 6-12 months. This provides you with a comprehensive analysis of any product's reliability and performance over time under specified storage and environmental conditions. We also offer accelerated stability testing, which allows you to simulate long-term effects within a shorter timeline. Rapid testing is particularly useful for bringing new products to market or for early identification of potential stability issues. This is often used for food and beverage products and pharmaceuticals.

We advise scheduling regular tests throughout the stability study. Periodic testing intervals—such as monthly, quarterly, and bi-annually—allow for the continuous monitoring of product stability and the timely detection of any changes in quality. This proactive approach helps in maintaining the highest standards of product safety and efficacy.

Mobile Stability Testing Containers

We customize stability testing shipping containers for biotech firms, research institutions, environmental labs, manufacturing companies, and others. These shipping containers are great if you don't have the space or need for a permanent installation. As a mobile "lab," stability containers can be modified for food and beverage storage for shelf life testing under specific conditions. You are able to adjust lighting, humidity, and other factors that play into food and beverage stability testing. These mobile labs are scalable, durable, and cost-effective for conducting your research.
