Cool Wave Processing is an innovative Dutch technology company with a bold mission: to transform the way we preserve and process food—sustainably, efficiently, and with health in mind. We believe in a future where food technology is fully electric, drawing power from the grid rather than fossil fuels, and where advanced preservation no longer requires heat or steam but is achieved gently and precisely through electricity.
At the heart of our approach are two breakthrough technologies: PurePulse and PureWave.
PurePulse, our Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) system, enables cold pasteurization of delicate products such as juices, smoothies, milk, and plant-based protein drinks—often below 50°C. This next-generation PEF technology (PEF 2.0) is a game-changer for producers seeking to extend shelf life while preserving taste, nutrients, and freshness.
PureWave uses advanced Radio Frequency (RF) technology to pasteurize or sterilize complex foods like soups, sauces, and ready meals. Thanks to its rapid, volumetric heating capabilities, RF enables UHT-level treatment without overprocessing, preserving product structure, color, and flavor—while reducing energy use and carbon footprint.
Cool Wave Processing is more than just a machine supplier—we are a full-service partner in your innovation journey. From product development and shelf life studies to food safety validation and turnkey factory design, we help you build complete production lines that meet the highest technical and hygiene standards. Through our Auxiliary Services, we also offer support in pilot testing, CAPEX planning, and equipment selection for filling, packaging, and extraction.
We work in close partnership with leading R&D institutions in the Benelux, including TOP B.V., NIZO, and ILVO, combining deep scientific knowledge with practical engineering expertise. Together, we ensure your product ideas become scalable, safe, and commercially viable.
Rooted in Food Valley Wageningen, Cool Wave Processing is part of a unique ecosystem of food innovators. This region brings together the brightest minds in food science, engineering, and sustainability—all within an hour’s drive from our headquarters.
We envision a food industry powered by clean electricity, not fossil fuels. An industry where health comes first, where preservation enhances rather than compromises food quality, and where innovative, natural processes replace outdated thermal and chemical methods.
