Dairy manufacturers are constantly balancing the need for high product quality with the demands of extended shelf life and efficiency. With evolving consumer tastes and global distribution needs, traditional UHT technology often falls short. That’s where the APV® Infusion UHT technology comes in. Discover why it’s becoming the go-to choice for premium dairy products worldwide. 

1. Enjoy Longer Shelf Life with Minimal Spoilage

Infusion UHT is particularly suited for applications where extended shelf life is essential. By optimizing heat treatment with rapid, gentle processing, Infusion UHT minimizes bacterial spores, ensuring a stable shelf life for a wide range of dairy products. With Infusion UHT, milk, cream and flavored dairy drinks can be stored for months without preservatives or refrigeration, allowing for broader distribution and reducing waste due to spoilage. This is especially valuable for export markets and regions with limited cold storage infrastructure, giving dairy producers more flexibility in reaching new markets. 

2. Maintain Unmatched Dairy Quality and Freshness

Infusion UHT excels in preserving the natural flavors, color and nutritional profile of dairy products. By directly infusing steam into the liquid, the product heats quickly and evenly, preventing burnt or off-flavors and minimum chemical changes that can result from prolonged high-temperature exposure. This method is ideal for applications requiring delicate handling to maintain freshness, including milk, cream and premium dairy beverages. 

For decision-makers focused on delivering high-quality products to discerning consumers, Infusion UHT provides a competitive edge in terms of taste and consistency.  

3. Achieve Higher Safety Standards with Ease

Microbiological safety is crucial in dairy production, and Infusion UHT offers a robust solution. The rapid heating and cooling phases in Infusion UHT effectively eliminate harmful microorganisms while preserving product integrity. By achieving a more controlled sterilization process, Infusion UHT ensures products meet the strictest hygiene standards, making it an excellent choice for ultra-pasteurized milk and cream, as well as aseptic products requiring long shelf life. 

This high level of safety not only builds trust with consumers but also simplifies logistics and storage, as products remain shelf-stable without refrigeration. 

4. Resource-Efficient Design

Infusion UHT systems are designed with flexibility in mind, offering tailored solutions to meet specific production needs. Integrated energy recovery options and efficient resource utilization minimize the consumption of energy, water and CIP chemicals, enhancing both sustainability and cost-effectiveness. 

Ãâ·Ñ³Ô¹Ï delivers innovations like the APV® Seamless Infusion Vessel and the APV® Aseptic Pulsation Dampener, which reduce fouling, extend run times and improve product integrity. Additionally, we are committed to redefining energy efficiency in UHT processing by maximizing energy recovery and reducing resource use. With transformative advancements on the horizon for 2025, our Infusion UHT technology is setting new benchmarks for sustainability and profitability in dairy and plant-based beverage production. 

5. Versatility Across Dairy Applications

One of Infusion UHT’s standout benefits is its versatility. The technology can be adapted to various dairy products, from traditional milk to high-viscosity creams and enriched dairy beverages. Whether producing standard pasteurized milk, flavored milks or premium creamers and yogurts, Infusion UHT offers flexibility without compromising quality. 

For decision-makers seeking an all-in-one solution, Infusion UHT enables streamlined production for a diverse range of products, reducing the need for separate systems and simplifying maintenance. 

Infusion UHT is particularly advantageous in applications where product quality and extended shelf life are key. Common applications include: 

• Milk and flavored milk: Preserves fresh taste and extended shelf life. 
• Cream: Maintains smooth texture and flavor with long shelf stability. 
• Dairy-based beverages: Ideal for premium, high-quality dairy drinks. 
• Yogurt and custard: Supports consistent texture and flavor. 
• Non-dairy milk alternatives: Extends shelf life while maintaining taste and nutrition. 

Choosing InfusionPlusâ„¢ UHT for a Competitive Advantage

Infusion UHT offers dairy manufacturers a competitive edge by preserving product quality, extending shelf life, and reducing energy costs. From milk and cream to complex beverages, it meets consumer demand for high-quality, shelf-stable products while enhancing operational efficiency—making it an ideal choice for forward-thinking brands. 

In addition to APV® Infusion UHT, Ãâ·Ñ³Ô¹Ï offers the unique APV® InfusionPlusâ„¢ UHT System, which provides Extended Shelf Life (ESL) along with the fresh taste to the product offering several benefits:  

• Longer Freshness: for e.g. ESL milk stays fresh for 10-45 days when refrigerated at 10°C, compared to a few days for regular pasteurized milk.  The flavor is as fresh as pasteurized milk. 
• Nutritional Value: It retains most nutrients and natural taste due to gentle heat treatment.   
• Convenience: Ideal for households with low milk consumption or limited access to fresh milk, reducing wastage.
