Tailored Solutions

JBT solutions for customers working in plant-based categories are wide and varied, from research programs designed to reduce steam usage in processing as a means to improving carbon footprints to bespoke systems developed through JBT’s worldwide Research & Technology Centers to help customers move into plant-based.

But more than this, JBT offers specific solutions for many of today’s in-demand plant-based products. JBT’s Sterideal and SteriTwin UHT systems are industry-leading in their ability to handle difficult-to-process products such as oat milk by extending processing time compared with any other UHT solutions on the market due to their unique design, which reduces fouling. Further, the JBT Homogenizer is highly effective at creating a smooth liquid from plant-based sources.

“JBT has been developing a lot of different solutions and systems with customers with the aim of helping anyone moving into the plant-based category to make their venture a success,” adds Martinez.
