Express Dairy's UHT Milk Revolution in the 1960s

Express Dairy started trials and early production of 'Longlife' milk at South Morden Processing Centre in South London in 1964. Dr Tom Ashton, Express Research Director was one of the team of scientists who developed the heat treatment method, along with the Ministry of Agriculture and NIRD, Reading. The UK Government was interested in the development as a way of improving Britain's balance of payments through milk exports throughout the world. The Tetra-Pak carton, developed in Sweden, was chosen to package the milk, which publicity at the time described as "A major breakthrough in dairy science". In 1977, production was transferred to Express Dairy's plant in Maidstone, Kent managed by Clive Bishop and Peter Prickett. In later years, UHT cream, fruit juices and 'Turtles' flavoured milk were produced, latterly at Express Crediton.
