NEWS RELEASE
Charlotte, N.C., October 14, 2025 – APV, a brand within ITT Flow Technologies’s Nutrition & Health division, has secured a major project worth more than $30 million with one of the world’s largest dairy cooperatives—Arla Foods. The valued partnership aims to make the Lockerbie Creamery in Scotland a UHT center of excellence. The expansion also underpins the Arla’s ambition to be carbon net zero by 2050, and ITT Flow Technologies’s mantra, “Earth Day, Every Day.”
ITT Flow Technologies designed the UHT solution around Arla’s agreed targets for minimizing water, energy and waste—key performance indicators for dairy’s broader sustainability journey. The new line enables long production runs, reduced operational steps and it supports a high-volume/low-product strategy.
“This success exemplifies how innovation and sustainability work hand in hand,” says Simon Phillips, President for Nutrition & Health Solutions at ITT Flow Technologies. “By combining our APV expertise, Arla's creating a UHT Center of Excellence that will sustainably support innovation and deliver high-quality products for years to come.”
More than the Injection UHT, the APV-retrofitted Creamery now also includes:
- A Flex-Mix Instant Mixer for vacuum mixing
- Q055 Energy-Saving Plate Heat Exchangers
- Assorted Pumps and valves
