Fonterra chooses Tetra Pak equipment for $100m plant
Fonterra has announced it will fit out its NZ$100 million UHT greenfield plant in Waitoa, New Zealand, with Tetra Pak processing and packaging equipment.
The new plant will contain five new UHT lines that will produce a range of products including UHT white milk and UHT cream for the foodservice sector, and double Fonterra’s UHT production capacity. It is planned to start producing its first milk by the middle of 2014, with products from the new plant exported throughout Australasia.
“In choosing Tetra Pak, we know we can count on the highest standard of food safety and quality,” said Fonterra Managing Director for New Zealand Milk Products, Gary Romano. “A long-standing partner of Fonterra, Tetra Pak offers both equipment and service that ensures we get our products to consumers safely and efficiently.”
The plant will produce long-life milk for the growing Asian market.
