Aquaflow Pasteurizing:

Unitherm Aquaflow Pasteurizers are approved by USDA FSIS and recognized for post-process and post-package pasteurization of RTE deli products. Common applications include smoked or roasted deli turkey, ham, and roast beef. Third-party validation studies confirm over a 2.0 log reduction in Listeria Monocytogenis in 2 to 3 minutes with minimal chilling required. Read Scientific Research Documents ().

The product is pre-cooked, chilled, packaged, and then pasteurized in water for 2 to 3 minutes. The key advantage to this process over pre-package surface treatment is that the product is already in the final packaging when it is being pasteurized, which eliminates the risk of product recalls due to the prevention of double handling.
