Beyond flavor profile and retention of nutritional
value, specifically Vitamin C, folic acid,
niacin, and antioxidants (Figures 3, 4 and 5),
HPP extends refrigerated shelf life to at least
90 days, depending on packaging (Figure 6).
Longer shelf life translates to increased distribution
opportunities, reduced returns and
sensitivity to cool chain abuse, and more
efficient production scheduling.
HPP: Production Automation
and Packaging Flexibility
HPP can be performed as a post-package
process, with microbial reduction taking place
in the final consumer package, reducing the
need for sterilizing containers prior to filling.
Product handling can be fully automated and
post-intervention contamination risks are
eliminated. This in-line pressurization method
is compatible with other hurdle steps and can
be incorporated into a HACCP plan.
Opportunity
High pressure processing offers substantial
opportunity for fresh cut fruits and
vegetables as end products and as process
ingredients (e.g., fresh fruit blended with
yoghurt). The benefit of retention of fresh fruit
sensory qualities of taste, aroma, color, and
nutritional content, adds great consumer
value and new product opportunities, with
the market for HPP foods now approaching
$2 billion worldwide.
