Lyras’ UV Pasteurization Technology is becoming Dairy Industry’s Favorite
Thermal Processing has been the traditional decontamination method for years to ensure food safety. However, recent years have witnessed the use of UV lights to improve food life and eliminate the complex production process in thermal processing. “UV Pasteurization technology has a lower environmental impact than traditional pasteurization while also cutting food waste and delivering […]
Three techniques for preserving and improving meat texture in chicken and fish
“Texture is among the most critical and perceptible meat features that influence consumers’ first impressions and final quality judgment when purchasing a meat product.” – Mir N.A., Rafiq A., Kumar, F., et al. Journal of Food Science and Technology A powerful shift towards minimally processed meat products has taken root due to consumers’ growing consciousness. […]
Latest Natural Food Preservation Techniques without Refrigeration!
The rapidly changing market standards and consumers’ demand for nutrition and flavor-rich fresh food have pushed companies to preserve food products without reducing quality. Refrigeration can often ruin the texture and reduce the food’s nutritional value; traditional preservation methods like salting or smoking the food won’t do the trick either, as they often compromise flavor. […]
Latest Non-Thermal Food Processing Trends to Watch in 2025
HIPERBARIC’s latest beverage processing technique boosts shelf life from a few days to over a month! Emerging trends like HPP (High-pressure processing) and PEF (Pulse Electric Field) are vital in shaping the future of non-thermal food processing. These methods address issues such as ineffective sterilization, low shelf life, and controlling pathogenic bacteria in food. This […]
Sustainable Ice Cream Innovations: How Mushrooms and Algae Cut Carbon Footprints.
Mycelium-based ice creams are helping create a carbon-neutral manufacturing process through CO2-consuming microbes! Similarly, starch-infused ice cream formulations are reducing energy consumption during production. Algae, microbial electrolysis cells, and on-demand freezing are set to disrupt the traditional cold chain, potentially slashing emissions by up to 35%. Several emerging cutting-edge technologies promise to deliver sustainable, guilt-free […]
Your Next Juice Won’t Turn Brown and Could Help Fight Cancer!
Challenges such as oxidative browning, unwanted flavors in vegetable beverages, and high sugar content have long held the juice industry back. These issues make it unpleasant for consumers to enjoy juice products beyond a certain period. The juices either become unedible or go bad. Many traditional processing methods use artificial preservatives and flavoring agents to […]
AI Ingredient Discovery Moves Mainstream among Top F&B Innovators
85% of new CPG products fail within two years. For the survivors, each six-month delay can erase 15-35% of a product’s net present value, while competitors capture market share that may never be recovered. Yet half of ingredient candidates still crash in late-stage feasibility—after months of bench work, procurement negotiations, and blown launch windows. The […]
9 Food Waste Management Companies & Startups at the Forefront of Innovation
EU’s Waste Framework Directive has set a goal to reduce food waste by 50% by 2030, where member states must measure and report their food waste levels periodically. Similarly, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) developed a hierarchy of actions to manage food waste. The European Union and the United States have implemented regulations for […]
10 Food Innovations Focus on Consumer and Sustainablity Demands
The global food industry faces challenges in scaling nutrition and functionality while satisfying an increasingly discerning, “clean-label” consumer base. As a result, the industry has witnessed a surge of cross-disciplinary breakthroughs. Innovation is thriving on the synergy among microbial strains, the molecular architecture of plant proteins, and the predictive power of artificial intelligence. From stabilizing […]
