Irradiation
What Can Gamma Irradiation Do for Your Product?
Gamma irradiation is not limited to a single application or industry. Depending on the product, process objective and technical requirements, irradiation can support microbial control, sterilisation, shelf-life management, quarantine treatment and other specialised applications.
Sterilisation
Supporting terminal sterilisation requirements for suitable products and applications.
Microbial Load Reduction
Reducing microbial contamination to support product quality and processing objectives.
Shelf-Life Extension
Supporting shelf-life objectives through controlled reduction of spoilage organisms.
Quarantine Treatment
Supporting applicable phytosanitary and quarantine treatment requirements.
Insect Disinfestation
Managing insect infestation in applicable agricultural and food products.
Process Support
Supporting irradiation trials, validation activities and routine processing requirements.
The appropriate irradiation pathway depends on your product, application and processing objective.
From Product Challenge to Routine Processing
Every irradiation requirement begins differently. VAPL works with manufacturers to understand the product, processing objective and technical pathway before progressing towards routine commercial irradiation.
