High pressure technology for food processing

Engineered Pressure Systems (EPSI), a world leader in custom-engineered high-pressure solutions, has wide experience of using isostatic high-pressure technology in the food processing industry

With over 35 years of knowledge and expertise, EPSI has custom designed numerous food presses for universities, research institutes, and international food concerns.

Available in laboratory and production units, EPSI isostatic high-pressure systems de-activate micro-organisms and enzymes, as well as de-naturate proteins and polysaccharides.

Food processes using EPSI high-pressure presses are designed to apply uniform, simultaneous and omni-directional pressure to food products, and are ideal for meeting the high capacity demands of today's food industry, with its requirements for easy and effective sanitation and cleaning of equipment.

EPSI non-thermal process subjects food products to high isostatic pressure, in the range of 100 to 900 Mpa at or around room temperature.

This process offers the food industry a unique opportunity to develop high nutritional foods of novel texture, higher safety, and sensory quality, while increasing shelf-life.

In addition, EPSI high-pressure food processing enhances retention of natural flavours, fragrances and nutrients in foods.

Engineered Pressure Systems is a leading manufacturer of hot, cold and warm isostatic press systems.

With its unique application-specific approach to R and D, manufacturing, and testing, EPSI has built a tradition of excellence in high-pressure engineering and technology worldwide.
