New technology for pasteurization

The DLG German Agricultural Society (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft) will present a Gold medal to a novel technology for in-pack pasteurization at the upcoming International FoodTec award ceremony.

Gas injection process is central to the Micropast technology.

IPS (International Packaging Systems) and Creative New Food GmbH are joining forces to present Micropast at Anuga FoodTec 2012. This innovative pasteurization method is rapid, gentle, energy saving, and both cooks and preserves ready meals and menu components in a single step process. A ‘best-before’ date of up to 90 days for both complete ready meals and menu components can be achieved in less than ten minutes with minimum thermal stress. Combining microwave technology and steam pressure cooking, MICROPAST® offers an optimal method for pasteurization of sensitive products. Consumer tests have shown that foods prepared using MICROPAST® technology can be difficult to distinguish from similar freshly prepared foods.

One of the first manufacturing and packaging lines with MICROPAST® was commissioned in the Netherlands in 2011. Covered in the October issue of Packaging World, the Zeeland’s Roem a la Minute line processes ready meals containing fresh mussels. Other facilities have already been installed or are at the planning stage. IPS, the engineering partner of Creative New Food, offers turnkey process and packaging lines.
