Sustainability
Retorting is an in-container sterilisation process where both the package and its food contents are exposed to high pressure and high temperature in a humid environment for a longer period of time. The time and temperature exposure is dependent on which food product is being sterilized, and will vary also between different producers with the same type of food product.
Retorting is a tough process for any package type, and has traditionally mainly been used with metal cans and glass jars. With Tetra Recart, it is now possible to have a carton based package managing the tough retort process. The major challenge when developing Tetra Recart was to find a packaging material structure that would be able to withstand the conditions inside a retort and manage a shelf-life up to two years. Each layer in the package has its own specific purpose, and together they keep the food inside the package safe.
