Maple water is the tree’s sap, collected around springtime. In order to make it accessible to the consumer the liquid has to be stabilized as fast as possible to preserve its organoleptic and functional properties.
The PROCESS
Sugar bush selection is based on strict standards. The installations, along with the maple water collecting and storing conditions, are thoroughly inspected. The maple water is analyzed afterwards. These precautions are instigated in order to provide and guarantee the best quality maple water there is.
Transport
Previous step
Maple water has to be quickly carried to the food processing plant in the least damaging way. Strict quality, hygiene and safety standards must also be upheld.
Stabilization
Previous step
The stabilization is performed in a specialized food processing plant. The sterilization procedure is used to preserve maple water. The processing plant must observe international regulations regarding quality and uphold NAPSI certification program’s requirements in order to maintain the integrity of the maple water.
Packaging
Previous step
Maple water is packaged under controlled conditions. The bottling process and packaging materials are configured to preserve the liquid’s organoleptic and functional features.
Authentification
Previous step
In the end, the only certified maple water batches are those that will uphold NAPSI’s hygienic and clarity standards.
