The other applications of CO2Sustain

Giving your customers the ultimate in refreshment and fizziness is the primary goal of most carbonated soft drinks (CSDs) manufacturers – a drink that consistently delights is going to keep consumers brand loyal and become great brand ambassadors too.

Technologies like CO₂Sustain offers CSD manufacturers one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to achieve fizzier for longer drinks. Testament to this is the manufacturers in over 22 countries who have discovered this magic for themselves and their consumers.

However, as many of them have also discovered there are other applications beyond just fizz!

Longer lasting carbonation

Whilst the primary benefit of CO₂Sustain’s technology lies in its ability to enhance carbonation retention, the implications of what the product can do stretches far beyond a longer-lasting fizz.

By maintaining carbonation levels more effectively, beverages can be stored for extended periods without compromising on quality. This not only improves the shelf life but also enhances the consumer experience, ensuring that each sip is as refreshing as the first.

It’s all in the taste

Our technology can also play a crucial role in flavour stabilisation and enhancement.

Carbonation can affect the perception of taste, with CO₂ interacting with beverage ingredients to release aromas and alter flavour profiles. By optimising carbonation, CO₂Sustain helps to create a more consistent and enhanced flavour experience. This is particularly beneficial for new product development, where maintaining the integrity of complex flavours is essential.

Good for the planet

Sustainability is no longer a trend but a necessity. CO₂Sustain’s technology can contribute to more environmentally friendly production processes. Enhanced carbonation retention means that beverages can be carbonated at lower pressures, reducing the energy consumption in manufacturing. Additionally, improved shelf life can lead to less waste, both in terms of expired products and packaging. For brand managers, this represents an opportunity to market their products as not only superior in taste but also as environmentally conscientious.

In the factory

The economic implications can be significant. By enhancing carbonation retention, manufacturers can reduce the amount of CO₂ needed for each batch of beverages. This not only lowers material costs but also minimises the frequency of equipment maintenance and downtime associated with high-pressure carbonation systems. The result is a more efficient production process with potential cost savings that can be reinvested into further innovation.

Stand out

In a crowded marketplace, differentiation is key. Products that leverage CO₂Sustain can stand out by offering a superior drinking experience. This can be a powerful marketing tool, allowing brands to position themselves as leaders in quality and innovation. Highlighting the unique benefits of CO₂Sustain-enhanced beverages—such as improved flavour, longer-lasting fizz, and environmental benefits—can create a compelling narrative that resonates with consumers, giving brands a clear competitive advantage.

What’s next?

CO₂Sustain technology represents a significant advancement in the soft drink industry, offering benefits that go far beyond simple fizz.

For brand managers and R&D professionals, the potential applications are vast, from improving product quality and shelf life to reducing environmental impact and driving cost efficiencies. By embracing these innovations, companies can not only improve their existing product lines but also pioneer new beverage experiences that captivate consumers and set new standards in the industry.
