High Pressure Processing

Safe. Natural. Extended Shelf Life.

What is High Pressure Processing?

High Pressure Processing (HPP) is a non-thermal food preservation method that uses extremely high pressure applied through water to inactivate harmful pathogens and spoilage organisms.
 

Unlike traditional heat pasteurization, HPP keeps food fresher because it:

• Uses cold water pressure instead of heat
• Maintains flavor, color, and nutrients
• Extends refrigerated shelf life
 

Products are sealed in their final packaging and placed into a pressure chamber where water pressure up to 87,000 psi is applied evenly around the package.
