Tuotepäivä

Tuotepäivä is a Finnish term that translates to "product date" or "production date". It refers to the date on which a product was manufactured or produced. This date is often found on the packaging of various goods, including food items, pharmaceuticals, and other consumer products. The tuotepäivä is distinct from the best before date or expiry date, which indicate the period during which the product is expected to remain of optimal quality or safe for consumption. Understanding the tuotepäivä can be helpful for tracking the age of a product and for consumers who wish to be aware of when an item was made. In some cases, particularly with perishable goods, the tuotepäivä can indirectly influence how long a product is likely to remain fresh, even if a specific expiry date is also provided. The presence and format of the tuotepäivä can vary significantly depending on the type of product and the regulations of the country of sale.
