The Process

How HPP Works

Three simple steps — your product never leaves its packaging, and never sees heat.

What Is HPP?

Pressure, Not Heat

High pressure processing surrounds your sealed, packaged product with pure water at extremely high pressure. There's no cooking involved — just pressure doing the work that heat traditionally did, without changing the taste, texture, or nutritional profile of your product.

1

You Ship Your Product

Send your already-packaged product to our Abbotsford facility — beverages, sauces, dips, tofu, salsa, or pre-packaged meals.

2

We Apply HPP

Pure water pressure surrounds each package for 2–3 minutes, deactivating pathogens and spoilage organisms — no heat involved.

3

Your Product Returns, Ready to Sell

We ship it back HPP-processed — same taste and texture, longer shelf life, ready for retail.

Why HPP

Freshness and Safety, Without the Trade-Offs

HPP preserves what makes your product good — while giving it the shelf life it needs to move through distribution.

True-to-Fresh Taste

No heat means no cooked flavour — taste, texture, and colour stay as close to fresh as possible.

Pathogen Safety

Pressure inactivates harmful bacteria and pathogens, meeting CFIA & HACCP food safety standards.

No Preservatives Needed

Extend shelf life naturally — no added chemical preservatives required to keep product safe and stable.

Less Food Waste

Longer shelf life means more sell-through time for you and less spoilage on the shelf.
