Product overview
Conventional aseptic tomato paste is an industrial tomato concentrate filled into sterile bulk packaging after processing. The format supports efficient international shipment, shelf-stable storage and direct integration into manufacturing operations where large volumes of tomato solids are required.
Atlas Global Trading Co. sources tomato ingredients through a multi-origin network of farms, processors and supply partners. We match available aseptic programs to the customer’s target solids, process type, consistency, color, plant handling requirements, commercial pack format and destination.
Aseptic packaging format
Aseptic programs commonly use sterile liner bags packed inside drums or larger bulk bins. The product and package are designed to maintain commercial stability before opening when stored according to the processor’s specified conditions.
Drum and bin programs can be matched to customer unloading, storage and batch-size requirements. Exact fill weight, liner configuration, palletization and container loading depend on the processor and origin.
Specification focus
For tomato concentrates, buyers commonly evaluate soluble solids or Brix, process type, consistency or Bostwick, color, pH, acidity, finish and microbiological parameters. Commercial sterility and aseptic pack integrity are also important elements of an industrial supply program.
Hot break or cold break characteristics may be selected according to the desired viscosity, flavor profile and finished-product performance. Concentration alone does not define how a paste will behave during pumping, dilution or cooking.
Plant handling and unloading
Pack format should be aligned with the customer’s extraction and receiving equipment. Drum pumps, bin systems, product temperature and line configuration can all influence unloading efficiency, particularly with higher-viscosity paste.
Manufacturers changing supplier, origin or specification may benefit from production-representative validation to confirm pumpability, dilution behavior and compatibility with existing plant systems.
Typical applications
- Industrial food manufacturing
- Sauce and condiment plants
- Ketchup manufacturing
- Foodservice packing programs
- Regional processing and distribution
- Remanufacturing and tomato-base production
Storage and inventory planning
Aseptic packaging supports ambient industrial storage prior to opening when handled according to the applicable product specification. Storage temperature, shelf life and handling instructions are product-specific and should be confirmed for each supply program.
For recurring programs, customers should consider projected consumption, warehouse capacity, lot rotation and shipment timing when selecting drum or bin configurations.
Conventional supply programs
Conventional programs can be optimized around technical performance, economics, origin, concentration, freight efficiency and continuity of supply. Multi-origin sourcing can provide additional flexibility when customers need to balance specification requirements with crop availability and delivery schedules.
Documentation and commercial planning
Depending on the selected program, available documents may include the current technical specification or TDS, certificate of analysis and relevant lot or shipment documentation. Exact document availability is confirmed with the commercial offer.
A complete inquiry should include target Brix or solids, hot break or cold break preference where relevant, consistency, color and finish requirements, preferred drum or bin format, annual or shipment volume, documentation needs and delivery destination.
