CENTA - Food Technology

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Food safety and food qualitiy assurance throughout the commercial life of the product are two essential concepts in the food industry. Customers not only require food products which maintain the sensory properties similar to those in a fresh product, but also ask for unaltered nutritional properties of the raw material after industrial processing.

 

 

 

 


With this purpose, CENTA offers the equipment and the knowledge of a group of experienced researchers, leaders in food preservation technologies with industrial application. Our team at CENTA work on developing and standarizing new products and processes, which are safer, healthier and with a better sensory quality.
