What is UHT Milk ?

Filed under: Bacillus, UHT Milk — admin @ 2:32 pm

UHT stands for Ultra High Temperature pasteurization and packing. During manufacture, the process produces milk that will be fresh and natural for several months without refrigeration. UHT milk has extended shelf life (shelf stable) and is sometimes called long life or extended life milk also. No preservatives are added.

Once the pack has been opened it must be refrigerated. UHT milk is a perfect choice for breakfast, school lunch, hiking, biking, camping, travel, food storage, emergency preparedness, and disaster response.

The milk has a longer shelf-life because of the aseptic packaging. This packaging ensures the milk is free of bacteria and hermetically seals it (air tight) thus eliminating the bacteria, air and light which will cause milk to sour. Whether in cartons or bags the foil lined aseptic packaging assures your milk is free of contaminates that rob shelf life.

Behind the manufacture of UHT milk include a strong team of technical personnel such as engineers, microbiologist and food technologist to ensure the UHT process works perfectly to bring you this great product.
