Hiperbaric, a leader in High Pressure Processing (HPP) technology, announced that American Pasteurization Company (APC) has installed a new Hiperbaric 525 system at its facility in Milwaukee. This new equipment will aid catering to the escalating demand for clean-label, minimally processed foods and drinks.
HPP is a natural way to preserve food and drinks utilizing very high pressure, instead of heat or chemicals. This method kills harmful bacteria while keeping the food fresh, tasty, as well as nutritious.
APC offers High Pressure Processing (HPP) tolling services, meaning they process pre-packaged food and drinks for other companies using their equipment. This helps brands get the benefits of HPP without having to buy their own machines, giving them longer shelf life and protection from recalls.
The new Hiperbaric 525 was added to APC's Milwaukee facility because of high customer demand and efficient logistics. The facility also offers a full range of services, including food manufacturing, cold storage, packaging, labeling, and more, along with expertise in food safety and regulations.
This expansion is due to the growing need for HPP in premium, refrigerated foods like baby food, dips, proteins, and drinks. The new system increases APC's production ability, gives more scheduling options, and aids in maintaining high service quality as well as reliability.
