Our liquid filling process helps brand owners meet time constraints, adhere to all safety requirements, and ultimately support their product-based business despite the competition. We’ll walk you through how the liquid filling process works so you know what to expect.
When you need beverage and liquid packaging, your first concern will probably be about the integrity of the filling process. Your products should be kept free from any potential of contamination. Our SQF certifications attest to our capabilities for meeting FDA regulations while processing your liquid products safely.
The Liquid Filling Process
The liquid filling process is tailored to the needs of each packaging and each product. Liquid products vary in consistency, so the filling equipment must have the capability to meet certain requirements. For example, we consider the viscosity of the liquid and how the packaging container is filled with product. We can mix or blend either hot or cold liquid and insert it into flexible or rigid packaging.
Meeting Your Temperature Requirements for Liquid-Filled Packages
Our hot and cold filling machines are designed to address temperature needs from below ambient to 205 degrees Fahrenheit (96.1 Celsius). The filling process for all food products – beverage, nutritional supplement, etc. – should adhere to the Global Food Safety Initiative.
The hot liquid filling process prevents bacteria from contaminating the product, guards against impurities, and helps avoid other food hazards. We use controlled environment rooms to maintain colder temperatures during the packaging process so that a product requiring refrigeration remains fresh.
