Tetra Pak® Extraction Unit for plant-based products

One solution. Numerous possibilities.

The Tetra Pak® Extraction Unit for plant-based products is a system for the continuous extraction of ingredient base from grains, beans, nuts and more. The unique design makes it possible to extract multiple types of ingredients in the same processing line, thereby creating the flexibility to boost your offering with a wider range of plant-based products.

The system is engineered to offer the optimal balance of quality and profitability. It provides the ability to adjust product characteristics to suit your consumers’ requirements, while also delivering superior yield and long running times. No soaking or blanching is required, meaning you can reduce water consumption and thus wastewater discharge. These benefits add up to major savings for low total cost of ownership with reduced environmental impact – backed up by our performance guarantees.

The Tetra Pak® Extraction Unit can be used for processing an extensive range of plant-based products, including:

  • Soya drinks: both traditional beany and low-beany varieties
  • Oat-based products using either whole oats or pre-processed oat flours
  • Rice drinks
  • Almond drinks
  • Pea drinks
  • Plant-based drinking yoghurts
  • Plant-based/cow milk hybrid products
  • And many more

The system comprises three major sections: a grinding module consisting of two mills, a fibre separation module consisting of high-speed centrifuges, and a heat-treatment module for enzyme deactivation. After extraction, the ingredient base is formulated, UHT-treated and packaged in Tetra Pak aseptic filling lines​.
