Young polish startup, which started in 2019 have already designed and patented compact freeze drying machine for food. Although the freeze-drying process is known for some time, machinery needed to perform a process are often big and heavy. Company have put a lot of effort in shrinking technology and making it small and compactible.

It allows you to freeze-dry fruit, vegetables, herbs, meat, meats, dairy products, as well as ready meals. Its first copies went on sale at the beginning of 2020. The buyers are restaurateurs, confectioners, food processing companies as well as private individuals. In addition to the production of the device, the company conducts r&d works aimed at implementing for sale its next versions, i.e. the home version for 3-4 kg of load and a freeze dryer with a load of 40 kg. The company is looking for distributors with experience in trading with food processing companies, HORECA or supplying household appliances to restaurants in Europe and Great Britain.
