Advantages of HPP automation

Using Hiperbaric’s automation solutions for the HPP process offers a wide range of advantages and benefits for companies that choose to implement this advanced technology. On the one hand, it saves time, as more processes are carried out in a shorter period of time, maximizing production throughput.

It also brings greater productivity and brand benefits, improves sustainability, and reduces food waste, as through automation, production processes can be optimized and controlled more precisely, leading to a significant reduction in waste and a lower environmental impact.

At the same time, it contributes to consistently high levels of food quality and ensures food safety when treated by HPP. Finally, it reduces labour costs thanks to more efficient and safer systems.

Case Study: Evolution Fresh, HPP benchmark through automation

Evolution Fresh, a subsidiary of Bolthouse Farms, relies on Hiperbaric HPP automation systems to produce cold-pressed juices. The company reports the following benefits, including a 15% improvement in overall equipment efficiency, a 90% reduction in injuries, a 50% reduction in transport waste, and a 50% reduction in line labor.

As a post-packing process, HPP requires the loading of packaged products into containers, which is a manual process. Robotic loading and unloading solutions have enabled Evolution Fresh to improve process efficiency while reducing potential injuries and labor costs. Discover their success story in this video:
