Fruit Juice Quality

Fruit juice can be made from a wide variety of fruits. The major components of fruit juice are water, sugars, vitamins, organic acids and phenolic compounds.

Making fruit juice is a rather common way of preservation of fruit.

Unfortunately, most fruit juices are sensitive to heat, oxygen and light. Several techniques can be applied to maintain the original quality and aroma of fruit juice. Not all of these are effective. In general, a process will be effective if the product is exposed to lower temperatures for shorter periods of time in an environment that does not allow oxygen to penetrate.

All of TEC Square’s high-end concentration technologies are based on this principle. We want to do as little as possible damage to the original structure of the product. We believe in this philosophy and apply this throughout our plants.

Final preservation will be achieved after pasteurisation. There are 2 completely different techniques in the market:

This technology is a cold pasteurisation technique whereby the product, that are already sealed in its final container, will be subjected to extremely high pressures. This process requires rather high investment costs, but gives an excellent end-result in terms of quality.

Or other processes is still practiced a lot, due to its economic advantage. TEC Square can provide solutions using this technology. You can find more information on our technology on the dedicated pasteuriser page.
