About Freeze Drying
Freeze-drying, known as lyophilization, is a technology that extracts water from foods without any heat. This gentle method takes place in a vacuum where frozen water sublimates directly into vapor, keeping the cellular structure intact. As a result, the food preserves up to 97% of its vitamins, enzymes, and antioxidants, delivering pure, natural fuel to your body just as nature intended for your health.

Spray Freeze Drying — A Synergistic Drying Technology and Its Applications in the Food Industry. This explores spray freeze-drying—a method where a solution is sprayed into liquid nitrogen to create frozen particles, which are then dried. It is the perfect solution for protecting heat-sensitive bioactive compounds.
