FREEZE DRYING
WE MAKE PREMIUM PRODUCTS LAST
There’s more to the gentle freeze-drying process than you might think. It preserves sensory characteristics and active ingredients without using carrier substances or technological additives.
We have been specialising in gently removing the moisture from premium products and giving them the best possible shelf life for more than 20 years. As experts in freeze drying, we know the individual parameters needed to give products a long shelf life and add real value.
Freeze drying has proven its value in a number of areas and sectors:
Food industry
for drying and preserving herbs, spices, vegetables, fruits and ready meals
Pharmaceutical industry
for drying and stabilising preparations with antibodies, vaccines, enzymes, hormones, antibiotics or vitamins.

HOW WE REALISE OUR STRICT HYGIENE STANDARDS
For freeze drying, a clean environment and most importantly clean air is crucial. You need the right conditions for each product, and that’s easier said than done. With one of the most advanced systems in the world, we ensure the highest quality standards for every product we process. Enduringly and reliably.
Our air is not simply heated by ventilation systems; the air in our systems is conditioned. It’s maintained at a predetermined temperature, humidity and purity. We combine this with positive pressure ventilation systems for complete all round safety.
