LONG LIFE FRESH MILK
45 days shelf life
10 days after opening
What is MST
MST is a new patented pasteurization technique. Employing a unique combination of low heat and low pressure it achieves a highly efficient reduction of microorganisms in liquid products and is applicable both to liquid foods and pharmaceutical products and substances. MST preserves nutrients, minerals, vitamins, and protein, while maintaining the natural flavour of the product being processed.
Produce Fresh Milk that last 45 days on the shelf and 10 days after opening with MST® Technology
How MST Works
The MST process suppresses or eliminates microorganisms’ vital functions. Currently, we combine MST with HTST (in standard or ESL packaging) to produce a superior product with all the same benefits. Tests confirmed 8 Log kill rate with no negative biological interactions.
The product is pumped into the MST chamber under pressure, dispersing into small droplets via spray nozzle. The droplets are formed at speed of 10 m/sec and propelled into the MST Chamber.
The microorganisms inside the droplets undergo shock from instantaneous pressure drop and temperature increase, unprotected by the fact that they have no surrounding liquid to absorb the shock, leaving them unable to survive the shock.
The product droplets then return to a liquid stream at the discharge of the MST Chamber. Since this all happens at lower temperatures the milk is then further heated and held in the normal HTST Hold Tube, so that the product is completely compliant with the applicable time & temperature requirements for ESL milk.

Greater Efficiency & Savings
By extending the shelf life, MST eliminates higher returns for milk and juice products. This is because with longer date codes, products stay on the shelf for much longer. With a much shorter date code and some companies pulling items off the shelves some days before the date code runs out, products’ time on the shelf is already cut even before they get to the store.
Besides increasing efficiency, this new technology generates savings. Longer date codes enable longer runs for low-volume SKUs, which then generate savings in terms of operating costs whilst cutting down shrink and allowing longer runs of products that move very fast.
