The HPP Council will officially launch at PMMI’s ProFood Tech.
PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, and the Reston, Va.-based owner of the PACK EXPO tradeshows, formed an industry council focused on the advancement of high-pressure processing (HPP). The HPP Council will address questions about HPP technology, develop and formal industry best practices and promote networking among professionals using this processing technology.
"In this age where consumer choice is critical, HPP is a cost-effective method for processors to maintain taste, texture and nutrition while providing the clean label consumers are looking for," says Jeff Williams, president of Avure Technologies, Erlanger, Ky., and a founding member of the council.
