"FOOMA JAPAN" is an exhibition of food manufacturing technology that proposes technologies for improving productivity and efficiency, as well as state-of-the-art products and services, while maintaining food safety and security.

Tetra Pak Japan is a total system supplier that provides everything from packaging materials for beverage cartons to beverage filling and packaging systems and food processing equipment. As a company involved in "food," in addition to providing safe, secure, and high-quality products and solutions, we are actively working to reduce energy consumption and improve operational efficiency.

◼️Exhibition Overview

This exhibition, under the theme of "Towards a Sustainable Future for Food," will introduce solutions that contribute to improving the production efficiency of food manufacturers and reducing environmental impact, focusing on food processing equipment that realizes labor saving and efficiency.

At the booth, we will propose concrete improvement measures for food processing sites through actual equipment displays such as heat exchangers (plate parts), as well as various plant component equipment and processing solutions.

◼️Main Exhibits

・"Tetra Pak® Homogenizer"

Achieves operation at approximately 30% lower homogenization pressure than conventional methods, thanks to a unique device (homohead) that maximizes homogenization efficiency. It maintains high processing quality while reducing power consumption, contributing to lower operating costs.

・"Tetra Pak® Centrifuge" [First Public Unveiling]

Prevents air inflow into the bowl with a completely sealed system (airtight technology), realizing high-quality products with less free fat and impurities. It supports the production of high-concentration cream and contributes to reducing manufacturing losses by minimizing sludge discharge with an exhaust control system (OWMC mechanism).

・"Tetra Pak® Heat Exchanger" [Actual equipment on display (partial)]

Offers a diverse range of types, including tube and plate types, to achieve optimal heat exchange according to the characteristics of each food product. The design also considers maintainability, leading to a reduction in operator workload.

・"Tetra Pak® Plant Components" [Actual equipment on display] [First Public Unveiling]

・Tank Agitator: Stirring efficiency is improved (approximately 4 times compared to conventional methods) due to a unique blade shape, significantly reducing power consumption. Maintenance work that conventionally required two people for about one day can be shortened to about 30 minutes by one person.

・Measuring Instruments: Bluetooth compatibility enables remote confirmation and setting, reducing high-altitude work on tanks and confined space work at the bottom. This contributes to improved safety and operational efficiency.

・Steam Trap: All necessary upstream and downstream equipment is built-in, making installation and maintenance easy and time-saving. It reliably removes moisture from steam and discharges condensate without stagnation, ensuring a stable supply of clean steam.

・"Tetra Prisma® Aseptic Packaging"

This ambient distribution paper container, compatible with 125ml to 1,000ml, achieves high product differentiation with 8 faces and 16 variations. It not only meets consumer needs for ease of use and single-serving sizes but also considers drinking comfort. Furthermore, it is suitable for the nutritional supplement field, such as protein beverages, where the market has recently expanded, and visitors can sample notable nutritional supplement lineups at the venue.
