Universal Pure has been around since 2001, and has grown to be the largest independent provider of HPP globally. Our Meriden, CT facility enables our suite of integrated value-added services, as well as co-packing and HPP from the East Coast to the West Coast.

We use high-volume, rotary filling technology to co-pack juice and beverage products for commercial scale production. As a result, our bottling lines have a capacity to produce 50 million+ bottles per year. Premium beverage brands can trust our team to manage the entire process. Because we combine High Pressure Processing (HPP) with our beverage bottling, our services work well with premium juice blends, cold brews, teas and other functional beverages.

What is HPP?

High Pressure Processing (HPP) is a unique food preservation method that utilizes cold water and high pressure (up to 87,000 psi) to ready-to-cook (RTC) and ready-to-eat (RTE) proteins free of pathogens without compromising flavor.
