Freeze drying for responsible food production

Mind the food

Freeze drying is a great way of preserving nutritional value in different food types, while increasing shelf life at room temperature, and reducing waste.

As individuals, we all want to know that the food we purchase for our families is nutritious, healthy, and looks, smells and tastes great. And with busy lives impacting on the amount of time we have to shop, especially for fresh foods, industry’s ability to develop strategies for increasing the shelf life of different food types without impacting on nutrition or taste is an added bonus for everyone!

Here at GEA we’ve put together a package of information on the freeze drying process, and the technologies that we offer. Find out how we work with the industry in real world settings to develop, evaluate and optimize freeze drying technologies for specific applications. And if you want to delve even deeper, have a look at our white paper, which goes into more detail on the key aspects of freeze drying. Of course, your local GEA representative is always on hand to point you in the right direction for more discussion or information.
