High pressure processing, also known as HPP is  modern  method  of food  preservation. The use of high hydrostatic pressure allows  extending the  shelf  life of food products while maintaining their nutritional  value  and  sensory characteristics. HPP technology it is a response to the  requirements  of those who require high quality fruit and vegetable products. Unlike  pasteurization, the HPP do not cause negative changes in fruit or  vegetable  juices  and purees. The high pressure treated foods are  characterized by a  high content of  nutrients, such as vitamins or  antioxidants.  The  manufacturers are able to obtain  the premium products  through effective  microbial degradation without losing  valuable nutrients and  natural great  taste.

 

 

Traditional thermal food processing such as pasteurization and sterilization is only aimed at lengthening shelf-life. The effect of the treatment are products with a lower content of vitamins and other biologically active compounds that are not resistant to high temperatures. Thermal processes reduce what is the most valuable in the product. HPP is a safe and natural method because high pressure does not affect these compounds as high temperature.

The clean label is one of the main advantages that the food producer gains after the implementation of this technology. HPP foods are products without preservatives and artificial additives. The clean label is recently one of the key factors influencing the selection of food in supermarkets. The use of HPP technology in the creation of clean label food is a concept that is a response to the interest of the modern consumer in healthy food without preservatives.
