Operating out of our state-of-the-art Bakersfield facility, California Dairies, Inc. manufactures extended shelf life (ESL) and aseptic (UHT) milk, cream, functional and flavored dairy beverage products in Elopak and Tetra Pak packaging, built to scale to 200 million gallons of annual capacity.
Our Bakersfield facility delivers flexible co-packing capabilities for conventional milk and creams, ultra-filtered, flavored and specialty dairy-based functional beverages. Built with advanced technology and sustainable operations:
Gentle Steam Infusion
Advanced heat treatment technology ensures precise processing temperatures without imparting a “cooked” flavor profile.
Automated ASRS Warehousing
Fully automated processing with “lights-out” robotic cranes and shuttles for maximum speed, safety, and inventory accuracy.
On-Site Methane Digester
Captures methane to reduce emissions and directly fuel facility heat treatment and cleaning systems.
Our refrigerated ESL products are ultra-pasteurized and filled in an ultra-clean environment to provide a shelf life of 90+ days while maintaining natural farm-fresh flavor.
Ultra-high temperature (UHT) pasteurized and packaged in a completely sterile environment, our shelf-stable beverages combine fresh flavor with unmatched storage flexibility and up to 12 months of shelf life.
