ICPK Corporation is leading the way in vertically integrated high pressure processing (HPP) and co-packing services for food and beverage companies in Southern California.
About ICPK
Through its subsidiaries HPP Food Services and Calpack Foods, LLC, ICPK provides a comprehensive solution spanning HPP tolling, co-manufacturing, packaging, and distribution – empowering brands to efficiently bring premium, value-added products to market while upholding the highest levels of quality and food safety.
“HPP is a true game-changer for brands looking to deliver fresh, clean-label products with an extended shelf life,” said Susan Ricci, CEO of HPP Food Services. “By leveraging the power of extreme water pressure instead of heat or chemicals, we can inactivate harmful pathogens while preserving nutrients, flavors, and textures.”
