Aseptic processing is a method of packaging foods and beverages into sterilized containers with a sterile seal, resulting in shelf-stable products that do not need refrigeration. It requires the use of clean rooms and equipment that are regulated to control the amount of microorganisms in the air. The process must be carefully monitored and strictly adhered to in order to produce consistently safe and high-quality products. The production of aseptically packaged food and beverage items requires a substantial capital investment.
