The High-Pressure Processing (HPP) is a technology used to preserve food, allowing the extension of products shelf life without the use of heat or preservatives and by doing so maintaining their sensorial and nutritional qualities.
This cold pressed technology is used on food products already packed and sealed in suitable flexible packaging, like GEPACK PET and RPET bottles. These products are conveyed into a chamber to undergo pressures as high as 6k for a few minutes, at room temperature or cold environment, which will inactivate bacteria and enzymes very quickly but with minimal interference on the quality of its content.
Our Solutions
GEPACK offers a wide range of packaging solutions designed and engineered to meet the requirements of High-Pressure Processing.
Our Projects and Engineering team takes on our clients’ needs from concept to production, ensuring functionality and compatibility with the HPP process. Both bottles and closure have an essential role on the success of the procedure, so the sealing properties are also carefully considered when developing the complete set. We also take under consideration the raw material to be used, it can be PET or RPET in any proportions, from 0 to 100%.
Our bottles and caps have the necessary compliance within the Hight Pressure Processing contributing to food integrity and quality without the need for additives or heat and as such, ensuring that the products keep their color, texture, and nutritional qualities such as vitamins.
Reducing the need to add additives into the products, to ensure its microbiological safety and the best shelf life, our packaging solutions will allow consumers to access the healthier versions of food products.
