Hiperbaric Showcases HPP Innovation and Automation at PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2025
Real-world success with Chick-fil-A's Bay Center Foods highlights how HPP automation boosts safety, efficiency, and scalability across food and beverage operations. MIAMI, Aug. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hiperbaric, the global leader in High Pressure Processing (HPP) equipment for the food and beverage industry, will present its latest advancements in HPP automation, integration, and safety at PACK EXPO Las Vegas, September 29 – October 1, 2025, at Booth #N-7444. High Pressure Processing, also known as HPP, is a non-thermal, post-packaging food and beverage preservation method (5°C – 20°C) that ensures food safety, extends shelf life, and maintains the fresh taste, texture, and nutritional quality of products. Using high isostatic pressure—up to 6,000 bar / 600 MPa / 87,000 psi—transmitted by water, HPP inactivates foodborne pathogens and spoilage microorganisms without heat, delivering results equivalent to pasteurization with none of the thermal damage. Today, more than 400 Hiperbaric HPP machines are installed worldwide, serving industries from beverages, meats, and seafood to plant-based products, pet food, and ready-to-eat meals. This versatile technology continues to transform the way brands deliver safer, fresher, and longer-lasting products to consumers.
