Promoting the Challenge of Reducing Food Waste: Notification of Extended Shelf Life for Carboff Long Pasta

Hagoromo Foods Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture; President: Saeko Goto) will change the shelf life of two 'Carboff Long Pasta' products as follows.

Reason for Change

As part of our efforts to value irreplaceable natural blessings, we are actively promoting initiatives to reduce food waste. For this shelf life extension, we conducted longer-than-usual storage tests (quality and specification inspections) and are making the change only for products confirmed safe based on scientific evidence.

For the 'Carboff Long Pasta' products, storage tests have confirmed no issues with safety or quality, allowing us to extend the shelf life. Notably, this is the second extension for these two products, following a previous extension on August 1, 2025.
