PATANJALI FOOD AND HERBAL PARK
PROCESSING UNITS ESTABLISHED
IN MEGA FOOD PARK
MULTI FRUIT JUICE PROCESSING LINE Largest integrated juice line in the world handling multiple fruits – Amla (Indian
Gooseberry), Aloe Vera leaves, carrots, wheat grass, mangoes, bottle gourd (lauki), bitter gourd (karela), tomatoes etc.
Capacity – 6,000 litres per hour (final product/juice) – up to 400 MTs of raw material can be consumed in a day.
Machinery imported from Alfa Laval, Sweden. Complete floor covered in corrosion resistant polyurethane (since some of the juices
like amla juice (low pH factor) are highly acidic) – total cost ~ Rs. 1.5 Crores (~350,000 USD)
Automatic Filling lines being installed (one in place – the other coming in – total 100 bottles per minute – in a completely automated manner without human touch)
Post Juice Extraction at the Belt Press, the juice is pasteurized to sterilise it and after this it is untouched by human hands.
Bottling happens post addition of preservatives – sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate (all within permissible levels)
Once the Aseptic Packaging Unit is fully commissioned, part of the juices would be filled in aseptic packaging without using any preservatives.
Some part of the juice is also being concentrated and kept in the cold storages for out-of-season bottling.
Currently, since the whole process line is not yet streamlined, we pack the juice in aseptic bags post pasteurization (without addition of any preservatives – stays good for 6 months) – and “drum” the same – the drum merely lends support to the aseptic bags and never comes in contact with the juice directly.
Patanjali Food Park is arguably the largest buyer of amla today in India with its requirement for the juice, candy and chyawanprash units.

HERBAL EXTRACTION/ OIL BLENDING LINE
Neutraceutical Plant: Batch and Continuous extraction plant of 5 & 8 TPD raw
material intake capacity. Both aqueous and solvent extraction plants. Being set-up by February 2011, is a liquid extraction
plant – for example, to extract Palm Stearate from Crude Palm Oil to use it as a natural base for our cosmetics.
Oil Blending Plant: Up to 5,000 litres per day of bottled product. Blending & Bottling – yet to be fully commissioned. Planned for mustard oil and coconut oil. Steam jacketed to melt coconut oil during winters.
ASEPTIC PACKING LINE
Clean Room housing complete aseptic packaging unit – inner units with Air Class 10,000 (denotes the level of hygiene)
Tetrapak Filling machines to pack 65 ml pyramidal packs – capacity to pack 1,6000 PPH.
Volpak machines to fill between 100 to 450 ml packs
These would have PURE juices without any preservatives.
Various flavours and blends of amla, aloe vera juices and blends with other fruit juices.
