Tetra Pak® Aseptic Dosing unit F is a unique and innovative new technique where functional ingredients are injected with high precision into the base product after the final heat treatment, just before filling.
The flexible system ensures the stability and survival of heat sensitive functional ingredients and avoids the need to overdose these expensive ingredients.
The Tetra Pak Aseptic Dosing unit F is fully automated and installed between processing and the filling machines. It can serve one or several filling machines.
Quick facts
Unit for automatic aseptic in-line dosing of ingredients
Capacity
Dosing range 0.5 – 30 l/h; product range 1 000 – 20 000 l/h
Applications
Dose sensitive ingredients like enzymes e.g. lactase, vitamins, minerals, Omega 3, probiotics, flavours, colours in everything from plain milk to formulated products
Heat treatment is often inappropriate for expensive ingredients such as lactase, flavours, or probiotics. That’s why our precision dosing technologies are designed to function after heat treatment, just before filling. This lets you create value-added beverages with great flexibility, while reducing lactase and flavoured costs and cutting cleaning costs compared to conventional batch production.
Consumers are increasingly choosing flavoured and functional dairy drinks and they’re willing to pay premium prices for them. Learn how to formulate recipes that meet this growing demand and improve your profitability. Whether you’re exploring the potential of your existing recombined milk line solutions or have a product in mind, we can help you go from concept to a commercial launch.
1 Calculation based on scenario comparing conventional batch production of 2,600,000 litres/year in 52 batches, where lactase consumption is reduced by 93%, from 3 millilitres per litre to 0.24 millilitres per litre.
2 Calculation based on scenario comparing conventional batch production of 2,600,000 litres/year in 52 batches, where flavour consumption is reduced by 20%, from 2 millilitres per litre to 1.6 millilitres per litre.
3 Calculation based on scenario comparing adding flavours in conventional batch production, where 5 different flavoured milks are produced in a day, running 15 hrs/day, with 10,000 l/h in the steriliser and a 20,000 litre aseptic tank.
