Aliments lyophilisés pour animaux de compagnie
Rien n’est trop beau pour nos compagnons à quatre pattes. Dans de nombreuses régions du monde, l’augmentation grandissante du niveau de vie a fait décoller les achats d’aliments lyophilisés pour chiens et chats, comme produits de premier choix. Ce phénomène est manifeste pour la viande crue qui est de plus en plus considérée comme une alternative plus saine aux aliments cuits, en ce qu’elle conserve ses valeurs nutritionnelles, a une faible teneur en sel et se passe d'additifs.
Why producers are turning to freeze drying as the future of seafood preservation
Freeze drying – referred to in certain markets as vacuum drying - enables the consumer to enjoy high-quality fish and shellfish with maximum shelf life and minimal preparation. By removing moisture at low temperatures using sublimation, freeze drying locks in flavor, nutrients and texture without the need for refrigeration or additives. It's the natural solution for seafood manufacturers and brands seeking to reduce waste, extend shelf life and protect product integrity.
Why freeze drying?
Freeze-dried seafood delivers wide-ranging benefits:
- Maximum retention of aroma, color, shape and healthy components
- Instant re-hydration
- Stable products with long shelf life
- Reduced food waste
- No need for cold chain distribution
- Low weight and easy handling reduces shipping costs.
