Critical topics important to high pressure processing (HPP), including regulatory guidance, consumer insights, HPP food manufacturing efficiencies, food safety and food innovation were explored at the inaugural Cold Pressure Council Annual Conference. The Cold Pressure Council also presented on its High Pressure Certified logo, now available for council members who can verify that they properly use HPP in their food manufacturing.

More than 140 food and beverage processors from 80 companies and 10 countries attended the meeting on June 18-20 in Itasca, Illinois, to gain insights on how to drive HPP forward through industry standardization and consumer awareness.
