It is popularly used by beverage companies, dairy brands, bakeries, baby food manufacturers and export-oriented food processors. Unlike frozen pulp, aseptic pulp has the advantage of usability all year round and easy storage, which represents a high attractiveness for institutional buyers.<\/p>\n<p>India is one of the major producers of papayas in the world, but there are huge post-harvest losses because of the perishability. Aseptic pulp manufacturing recycles excess fruit into a stable, high value industrial ingredient.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Handling_Process_Production_Insights\"><\/span>Handling Process &amp; Production Insights<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The manufacturing process consists of reception of fruit, washing, peeling + deseeding, pulping, pasteurization and aseptic filling. Operational success relies on hygiene requirements, regular raw material sourcing and strict quality control. Most successful plants are placed near the cultivation belts in order to reduce transportation losses.<\/p>\n<p>Food safety certifications like FSSAI, HACCP and ISO play an important role in winning export contracts and getting premium pricing.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Raw_Materials_and_Processing_Considered\"><\/span>Raw Materials and Processing Considered<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The primary raw material is ripe papaya of defined sugar content (brix level).
