Project description
Preserving fresh fruits and vegetables with mild processing
Consumers are increasingly demanding food that is fresh, healthy, convenient, sustainable, locally produced and free of additives. EU-funded SHEALTHY will employ non-thermal sanitisation, preservation and stabilisation methods to enhance the safety, preserve the nutritional quality and prolong the shelf life of minimally processed fruit and vegetable (F&V) products. Demonstration and validation will be performed for minimally processed F&Vs and F&V-based juices and smoothies. To improve the traceability and authenticity of raw materials across the entire value chain, novel cooperative business models and logistics systems will be set up. Importantly, innovations will be tailored to the requirements of local micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises. The project will also assess commercial feasibility, including consumer acceptance and regulatory, safety and environmental factors.
