Why Does my Safetec Product Not Have an Expiration Date

At Safetec, when you purchase one of our products from a distributor, you may notice that there is not an expiration date on that product. Let us explain the reasoning for that on the two different product types (Safetec Kits & OTC Products).

On our Safetec Kits:

The outer packaging of any Safetec kit does not receive expiration dating during manufacturing because there are multiple items within a kit that each have different expiration dates, depending on the individual date of manufacture. Safetec does strive to efficiently package kits with only the most recently manufactured internal components, ensuring a 2 to 3-year shelf life.

OTC products (have Drug Facts):

Products that do not have a dosage limit (like amount per day) do not require expiration dating. Safetec is required however to have proven test studies showing product stability over a 3-year shelf life, by the FDA. If a product states a dosage limit in the Drug Facts-Uses like “not more than 3 to 4 times daily” then an expiration date will be displayed on the inner most packaging.

This is one of our most frequently asked questions in our store. Please know that we are compliant with everything that we release, and only give you the best quality in the products that are manufactured in our Buffalo, NY facilities.
