Global Extended Shelf-Life (ESL) Milk Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Extended Shelf-Life (ESL) milk is a dairy product that has undergone a specialized pasteurization process, which extends its shelf life compared to conventional pasteurized milk while maintaining its freshness and nutritional quality. During ESL pasteurization, the milk is heated at a higher temperature for a shorter period, effectively killing harmful bacteria and enzymes that cause spoilage while preserving the taste and nutritional value. This process typically allows ESL milk to remain fresh for several weeks or even months when stored at proper refrigeration temperatures, making it a convenient choice for consumers who want longer-lasting milk without resorting to ultra-high-temperature (UHT) treatment, which can alter the flavor and texture of the milk.
