Nutricare: Million dollar production line for the dream of ‘outstanding nutrition products’

tuoitre.vn – In 2018, the idea of factory No. 2 was initiated in the minds of leaders with many doubts about the scale, design, and product line. The only thing they have never hesitated is that the production line will have to be modern with safe technology.

A million-dollar production line from Tetra Pak

For people working in the global dairy industry, Tetra Pak is not a strange name. “Every dairy factory must have at least one device from Tetra Pak. But owning their million-dollar automatic production line is an expensive and luxurious dream” shared Mr. Nguyen Trung Kien – Director of Factory No. 2 of Nutricare Nutrition Joint Stock Company. However, the company still believes in choosing to pursue that dream.

1 – hectare factory with 17 workers per shift

On an area of ​​nearly 1 hectare, the factory is almost empty, not because of lunchtime, or production stagnation. Manpower in a shift, only 17 people at most.

The production order at the beginning of the day given by the director will decide the milk production for the day, and after pushing a “start” button, the production line automatically knows what to do.

“Operating 5 areas of water supply, compressed air, refrigeration system, boiler system, and wastewater treatment area, only one person is needed. This employee’s job is to record the parameters to make sure the system runs as the command given earlier. However, modern machinery is just like a good horse, it needs people who are able to hold the reins to control it,” said Nguyen Trung Kien.

Pride and challenge named “outstanding nutrition”

A feature of Nutricare milk is its high nutritional content, over 20%. Therefore, the production line needs to be specialized.

Mr. Ngo Thanh – Director of Tetra Pak Vietnam Processing Equipment Company recalls: “We also spent many months discussing with the Board of Directors about possible options. The company’s equipment system needs to be designed specifically, supporting the production of a variety of products with outstanding high nutritional content, automating operations, and meeting high standards of food safety and hygiene.”

One of the challenges is the sterilization system. Milk is put into the 140 Celsius degree tube system within 4 seconds and then cools down immediately, ensuring sterilization without losing nutrition. However, the high nutrient content easily causes adhesion to the pipe surface, making it difficult to ensure the quality.

Normally, the milk line runs continuously for 18-20 hours before it needs cleaning. For the high nutritional content of Nutricare products, on average, the system must be cleaned every 6-8 hours. The program CIP (Cleaning in Place) is also specially researched for this system.

Giving the best to customers and the natural environment

Over the past seven decades, Tetra Pak has always owned the world’s leading dairy packaging quality. Choosing this expensive trusted brand, Nutricare is committed to “giving the best to its consumers”. “Each milk carton is excellent from the inside out”, with 6 layers of packaging structure: moisture-proof; shaping; bearing; stick; aluminum foil layer that prevents oxygen, odor, and light and seals the product.

Well-manufactured milk needs high-quality packaging to fully preserve nutrients and taste without preservatives. Therefore, even though the packaging is more expensive than some other types, the company still chooses it to ensure its quality.

However there is an unexpected reason, the company chooses Tetra Pak packaging for the sake of the environment. 100% of excess and damaged packaging from production will be collected by the supplier for recycling.

The company team understands that actions today will impact in the long-term future. An improper behavior with the environment affects millions of years, in nutrition, careless actions will have consequences for many generations. That is also the reason why every glass of milk we make represents the 10-year enthusiasm of a National Brand of Medical Nutrition.
