MIAMI, Oct. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Hiperbaric, the global leader in High Pressure Processing (HPP) equipment for the food and beverage industry, announces record growth with 30 HPP machine installations planned for 2025, adding 9,900-liters of processing capacity worldwide. The milestone year includes new tolling partnerships that expand HPP accessibility following a successful showcase at PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2025.

The company has already installed 19 HPP machines globally this year, with 11 additional units scheduled before year-end. Half of these installations are located across the Americas, demonstrating strong regional adoption of the preservation technology.

HPP Technology Transforms Food Safety and Quality

High Pressure Processing uses high isostatic pressure—up to 6,000 bar / 600 MPa / 87,000 psi—transmitted by water to inactivate foodborne pathogens and spoilage microorganisms without heat. This non-thermal preservation method maintains fresh taste, texture, and nutritional quality while ensuring food safety and extending shelf life, delivering pasteurization-equivalent results without thermal damage.

At PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2025, Hiperbaric partnered with customer Bay Center Foods (a Chick-fil-A subsidiary) to present "Automation Solutions for HPP: Success Story by Bay Center Foods," at the Processing Innovation Stage. The session showcased how HPP automation increases throughput, improves traceability, and enhances overall equipment effectiveness at the world's most automated citrus facility.

"We value our partnership with Hiperbaric and this relationship has enabled us to create the world's most automated HPP lemon processing facility," said Kurt Cahill, Executive Director of Manufacturing Innovation at Chick-fil-A. "The integration of HPP technology with an advanced automation systems platform has transformed our operations, allowing us to significantly reduce unplanned downtime while improving food safety, product quality, and operational efficiency. This collaboration demonstrates how automation and HPP technology helped us scale to meet the demands of our Chick-fil-A restaurants."

As a founding member and platinum sponsor of the Cold Pressure Council (CPC) Annual Conference, held in conjunction with PACK EXPO, Hiperbaric presented "HPP Principles and Applications," sharing industry insights with food and beverage professionals looking to understand and implement HPP technology. The presentation highlighted how companies increasingly turn to HPP as a critical component of their food safety strategies while meeting consumer demands for fresh, preservative-free products, reinforcing the growing industry momentum demonstrated throughout the event.

Record Growth Demonstrates Accelerating HPP Adoption

The momentum showcased at PACK EXPO reflects broader market trends, with Hiperbaric achieving significant milestone growth in 2025. The 30 new machine installations demonstrate HPP's versatility across multiple sectors. Juices and beverages lead adoption with 37% of installations (11 machines), followed by tolling services at 20% (6 machines), meat processing at 17% (5 machines), avocado processing at 10% (3 machines), with seafood and fruit & vegetable sectors each representing 7% (2 machines each). This distribution reflects the technology's versatility and expanding reach across traditional and emerging food categories.

Expanding Hiperbaric HPP Global Tolling Network with Two New Partnerships

HPP Service Providers, known as HPP tollers, offer food companies access to HPP technology without equipment purchase and maintenance requirements. Two new partners have joined the Hiperbaric HPP Global Tolling Network, strengthening this ecosystem and expanding geographic coverage:

Bevara HPP becomes the first dedicated HPP tolling provider in North Carolina, filling a critical geographic gap in the Southeast market.

"We're excited to bring HPP services to North Carolina for the first time, particularly given that North Carolina ranks as the second-largest state for food processing and manufacturing," said Kevin Forrest, CEO/President, Bevara HPP. "This partnership with Hiperbaric allows us to offer local food manufacturers access to world-class HPP technology without capital investment barriers, helping them improve food safety and extend shelf life while reducing transportation costs."

Sunrise Logistics, Inc., part of the Four Seasons Family of Companies and based in Ephrata, Pennsylvania, brings unique value by integrating HPP services with their comprehensive supply chain and logistics solutions. The company leverages synergies across their family of companies—including Four Seasons Produce, Inc., Earth Source, and Sunrise Transport—to create end-to-end solutions that help food companies succeed in the fresh market.

"Our partnership with Hiperbaric represents a natural evolution of our commitment to providing value-added solutions for our customers," said Chad Ogden, Director of Business Development. By combining HPP capabilities with our extensive supply chain and logistics expertise through our family of companies, we're uniquely positioned as a one-stop solution for companies looking to succeed in the fresh category. Our customers can now access HPP, fresh produce sourcing, cold storage, kitting, packaging solutions, transportation services all under one roof. This fully integrated approach gives our customers a significant competitive advantage throughout their entire supply chain."

"The formation of these strategic tolling partnerships, combined with our record installation numbers, demonstrates accelerating HPP adoption across the food industry," said Rob Peregrina, USA Executive Director of Hiperbaric. "Our focus on advancing the HPP industry, showcased at PACK EXPO Las Vegas, helps companies of all sizes access HPP benefits while meeting growing consumer demand for safer, fresher products."

With more than 400 Hiperbaric HPP machines now installed worldwide, the technology continues transforming how brands deliver safer, fresher, and longer-lasting food products. The expansion of tolling providers removes traditional barriers to HPP adoption, enabling more manufacturers to leverage this proven technology for competitive advantage in food safety and quality.
