Natural products are challenging. Changes in rainfall, crop availability, and the variability of microorganisms in different geographic regions make it difficult for others to consistently provide quality product. This is where Martin Bauer steps in with our proprietary dry steam sterilization process. Introduced in 2002, Protexx HP^® Green Steam™ delivers results comparable to that of treatments with ethylene oxide or irradiation – except Protexx HP^® Green Steam™ is a clean label, environmentally friendly process. 19 years and 5 steam systems later, Martin Bauer remains the industry leader.
