HPP Summit

Universal Pasteurization, the world’s largest High Pressure Processing (HPP) service provider,  will host the first dedicated HPP Summit. Intended to be an annual event, the summit is focused on educating the food and beverage industry on the manufacturer, retailer and consumer benefits of the use of High Pressure Processing including food safety, dramatic shelf life extension and enablement of cleaner label products.

The event will be held October 3 – 5, at the University of Nebraska Innovation Campus and will feature food and beverage industry veterans in food science, food safety, regulatory, marketing and retailing as they present the latest innovations in HPP applications and how to successfully develop, brand and launch HPP products. Presenters and panelists consist of industry leaders including representatives from Evolution Fresh/Starbucks, Hormel, and Subway as well as others to be named.

In addition to presentations and panels, attendees will be able to participate in tours of the University of Nebraska’s Food Innovation Center, a new 178,000 square foot, stateof- the-art facility. Some of the services offered at UNL’s food processing center include pilot plant, product & process development, sensory analysis and other laboratory services.
