Preserve Milk Quality and Extend Storage Viability in Raw Silos.

Thermoplak™ Thermizer: Advanced Raw Milk Stabilization Preserve Milk Quality and Extend Storage Viability in Raw Silos. The Thermoplak™ Thermizer is a precision-engineered sub-pasteurization thermal system specifically designed to neutralize the threat of psychrotrophic bacteria in raw milk reception. By applying a targeted thermal shock—typically 145-149°F (63-65°C) for 15 seconds—the system halts the biological processes that degrade raw materials during cold storage. Enzymatic Inhibition: Effectively stops enzymatic proteolysis (protein breakdown) and lipolysis (fat breakdown), preventing the development of bitter peptides and rancid off-flavors before they start. Microbial Load Reduction: Drastically reduces the population of psychrotrophs, which are notorious for producing heat-stable enzymes that survive subsequent pasteurization. Functional Integrity: The "gentle-touch" thermal profile ensures that organoleptic properties and whey protein structures remain unaltered, making it ideal for cheese or powdered milk production. Plant Profitability: Engineered for high thermal recovery (up to 90%), reducing utility consumption while significantly extending the safe storage window for incoming raw milk.

GENTLE TREATMENT TO EXTEND RAW MILK SHELF LIFE IN SILOS

Our thermization systems are designed for processing plants that need to extend raw milk storage time without altering its functional or organoleptic properties. Through gentle and controlled thermal treatment, we reduce the psychrotrophic load, ensuring raw material quality for subsequent processes such as cheese making or powdered milk production.

The design of our equipment prioritizes two critical factors for plant profitability: product integrity and utility savings.

MAXIMUM THERMAL RECOVERY: We design our heat exchangers to achieve up to 90% regeneration. The system harnesses the energy of the outgoing product to preheat the incoming product, drastically reducing steam and chilled water consumption.

GENTLE PRODUCT TREATMENT: To prevent thermal damage to proteins and flavor changes, our systems operate with a minimum temperature differential (ΔT) between the heating medium (hot water) and the product. This ensures efficient heat transfer without 'burning' the milk.

SAFETY AND INNOCUITY: We integrate automatic flow diversion valves (FDV) and leak detection systems. If the thermization temperature is not reached, the product is automatically diverted to ensure only correctly treated milk proceeds to storage.
