What is aseptic packaging?

Aseptic packaging allows you to buy a larger supply of soymilk and store it on the shelf until you’re ready to use it. WestSoy aseptic soymilk products can be stored up to a year in a pantry or cabinet without refrigeration until ready to use. So buy in bulk, and be sure that you won’t run out. The soymilk is processed using a UHT (ultra high temperature/ short time) pasteurization process. Then it is packaged in a container that has a foil layer in the middle of the layers of packaging that prevents any air or moisture penetration.

But remember- while you can safely store aseptic packaging in your cabinet for convenience- it always tastes better chilled!
 

What is the suggested temperature for storing soymilk in the aseptic packaging before it is opened?

Normal ambient conditions are preferred, although moderate warmth and coldness can be tolerated.
 

How do I recycle aseptic packaging?

Since the first drink box recycling pilot in 1990, the aseptic packaging industry has seen recycling programs spread across the country. Commonly called "drink boxes," aseptic packages are collected in the curbside and drop-off programs along with other polyethylene-coated beverage cartons.
