Petroleum-based plastic materials stay in the environment for hundreds of years, entering the food chain and negatively affecting wildlife. Biodegradable packaging, made by vegetable material, has appeared as a solution since they decompose naturally, thus not affecting the environment. The worldwide innovation, Hiperbaric Bulk technology for processing big volumes of liquids in bulk, potentially adds to the solution in the High Pressure Processing field, since it allows to use any kind of packaging for HPP beverages.

Packaging and HPP, what should you focus your attention on
Packaging not only extends the shelf life of foods but protects the products from detrimental external agents like chemical compounds or spoilage microorganisms. And combined with high pressure (HPP) lengthens the shelf life as well. Although, many food industries wonder if their current packaging would withstand pressures of up to 6,000 bar. In this post we talk openly about the technical aspects of packaging applied to HPP products and, especially, the use of polymer ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) so widely used in the food industry for its oxygen barrier capabilities.

PACKAGING: an essential part of the success of HPP technology
“Before I state the details of my process, I ought to observe that it consists principally,
1st. In inclosing in bottle the substances to bepreserved.
2nd. In corking the bottle with the utmost care; for it is chiefly on the corking that the success of the process depends”
3rd. In submitting these inclosed substances to the action of boiling water in a water-bath (BALNEUM MARIAE), for a greater or less length of time, according to their· nature, and in the manner pointed out with respect to each several kind of substance.
4th. In withdrawing the bottles from the water-bath at the period prescribed.” Continue reading
