PEF for freeze-drying

PEF can dramatically improve the quality of freeze-dried products, capturing more of the natural shape, flavour, aroma and colour of the fresh produce

Better shape retention
PEF treatment leads to a higher quality product with increased form stability and less shrinkage.

Retain more flavour, aroma and colour
Shorter drying times and better process control enabled by PEF mean that the raw product retains more of its original colour, shape and flavour.

Potential energy savings, increased capacity & reduced process time
The production process becomes more sustainable with shorter process times, providing energy savings and an increase in capacity.

Better rehydration
Better shape preservation with PEF treatment produces a more open product structure, enhancing rehydration.
