How to Store Spa Body Care Products: Temperature, PAO & Hygiene

Organized spa treatment area for proper body care product handling and storage

Correct storage is part of good spa operations. BORAGE storage guidance is straightforward: keep products at 15–25°C, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat, and keep containers properly closed after use.

What temperature should spa body care products be stored at?

BORAGE products should be stored at 15–25°C. In warm climates such as the UAE and GCC, stock should not be left in direct sunlight, hot vehicles, near windows with strong heat exposure, or in unconditioned storage areas where temperatures can rise significantly.

Should containers stay closed between treatments?

Yes. Keep jars and containers tightly closed after each use. This helps protect the product from unnecessary exposure and keeps the treatment area more controlled.

Why should water be kept out of jars?

Do not introduce water into jars or containers during treatment use. Use clean, dry tools for dispensing where practical rather than returning wet hands or wet implements directly into the product.

What does 6M PAO mean?

Some products carry a 6M period after opening (PAO) symbol. For products marked 6M, use the product within six months after opening and within the printed expiry date. The printed packaging remains the primary reference for the individual product.

When should an opened product be discarded?

For products marked with a 6M PAO, discard the opened product at six months after opening or at the printed expiry date, whichever comes first.

Simple spa storage checklist

  • Maintain storage at 15–25°C.
  • Keep products away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
  • Close containers properly after every use.
  • Keep water out of jars and containers.
  • Use clean, dry dispensing tools where possible.
  • Follow the PAO symbol and printed expiry information on each product.

Does every product use the same storage or PAO instruction?

Always check the individual packaging. The guidance above reflects BORAGE storage and PAO reference information, but the label on the specific product should be followed for its final instructions.

Quick answer

Store BORAGE spa products at 15–25°C in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and excessive heat. Keep containers closed, avoid introducing water, and follow the PAO and printed expiry information.
