The value of adding value Tetra Aldose® Tetra FlexDos™

Freedom to innovate Milk is a healthy, nutritious and affordable product. There’s nothing new about that. However, the fact that there is nothing new about a product can be a challenge; these products are seen as commodities, with little opportunity for profitable margins and growing market share. That’s why there can be great value in adding value…. Food safety – more than ever In a growing number of markets, consumers are choosing milk products that offer something extra in the form of health and wellness – value-added products that deliver more in terms of nutrition and taste.

21st century UHT dairy production There are two main approaches to producing UHT milk products: in batches or in-line. Batch production is almost as old as the products themselves. But there is a choice, and here are 12 key differences that are worth considering. Take a look at the sketch of the batch and in-line solutions. You can immediately see that there’s much less hardware needed for the in-line solution: no need for a thermizer/pasteurizer and no need for the intermediate storage tanks. The milk goes directly from reception to the UHT unit, followed by a very compact in-line aseptic...

Most conventional batch solutions for formulated UHT milk processing may take days from raw milk to the packaged product. Our aseptic in-line dosing solutions cut the time from days to just a few hours. All with full control, top product quality, minimal environmental impact and uncompromising food safety. Any process that cuts the consumption of water, energy and detergent, as well as product loss, is not only going to save you money, but reduce your environmental impact as well. That is the “environmental bonus” of aseptic in-line dosing – sustainable in every sense of the word. 8....

The unique advantages of aseptic in-line dosing from Tetra Pak Today’s milk producers have many choices – opportunities to optimize production, cut costs and achieve more. We offer two kinds of in-line aseptic dosing solutions. Compared to batch dosing, they offer all these advantages: Less hardware and a much smaller footprint. Lower costs for water, energy and detergent, as less equipment is required. Improved product quality, thanks to lower heat load, greater dosing precision and repeatability. Lower cost for ingredients, as they don’t have to be heated and over-dosed. Lower product...

Tetra Aldose – cost-efficient aseptic dosing Tetra Aldose can be used for a wide dosing range and is very cost-efficient for production with the same ingredient. The process also greatly reduces the consumption of ingredients and makes it possible to use heat-sensitive ingredients in an efficient way. The set-up When using Tetra Aldose for continuous in-line production with the same formulation, the unit is placed directly after the UHT unit. The formulated product then goes to an aseptic buffer tank or directly to the filling machine. If you have several filling lines and want to use...
