As high pressure processing (HPP) grows to provide consumers foods with natural flavors and free of preservatives, the most important job of HPP is to keep consumers safe from harmful bacteria such as salmonella and listeria.
Food Safety Strategies recently was able to talk to Dr. Errol Raghubeer, vice president of food science and microbiology, JBTAVURE, about HPP (high-pressure processing) and the U.K. Listeria outbreak.
With meat production on the rise—in fact tripling over the last four decades, according to the Worldwatch Institute—HPP (high-pressure processing) has proven itself not only to kill dangerous microbes, but also to extend shelf life by a factor of two to four times. Trouble is, with these merits, HPP meats tend to lose their color, which is a turnoff to some consumers.
Industry leaders to address latest trends in High Pressure Processing (HPP) for food and beverages
More than 20 speakers will share new insights and the latest trends in High Pressure Processing (HPP) at the Universal Pure 2019 HPP Summit to be held Sept. 25-27 in Atlanta.
Food Safety Strategies was recently able to chat with Lisa Wessels, CMO, JBT/Avure, global maker of HPP Machines, about the HPP seal and what it means for the industry.
The HPP segment is estimated to dominate the non-thermal pasteurization market in 2018.
The non-thermal pasteurization market is estimated to account for about $1.1 billion in 2018, and is projected to reach a value of nearly $2.7 billion by 2023, growing at a CAGR of 19.8% from 2018, according to a report published by MarketsandMarkets, New York.
