WHY IS DRYING THE BEST WAY OF FOOD CONSERVATION?

1. Drying is a NATURAL way of conservation without the use of chemicals.

Demand for products which are conservated without preservatives and chemicals is growing, and that is achieved by drying.

Everything can be dried, and what is dried can't spoil, even after a long storage time because NOTHING CAN LIVE WITHOUT WATER (which is removed out of product when it’s dry), so neither can fungus nor bacteria which cause spoiling of food.

Since dried products contain high level of nutrition, they are on the healthy diet list.

Our approach completely fulfills requirements of the healthy food market, and that's why we chose to produce drying equipment.

2. Unlike frozen products, those that are dried don’t require energy consumption during conservation

Fact is, using energy in the process of drying is one-time only (unlike freezing, where energy is constantly used to keep products frozen) also, storing and preservation of dried products is very simple.


You can achieve superior preservation of food by drying.
After immersion in water, dried products can be used as fresh ones. In other words, the quality of a dried product put into water doesn’t substantially differ from the quality of the fresh one, which is also an advantage compared to other ways of food preservation.

We are certain this obstacle is overcome with technology of heat pump drying (on which OPTIMONIA ''CS'' dryer is based).

The future of food preservation belongs to drying.

We are convinced that chemical use will be more and more restricted and reduced to legal minimum. It is a process which will follow in all countries, so our recommendation to everyone involved in the production and marketing of food is to prepare in time, in order to avoid narrowing of the market for their products.

Natural way of preserving food is achieved in chambers which simulate natural conditions (freezer rooms and dryers).

CONDITIONS WHICH ARE TAKEN FROM NATURE AND WHICH CAN COMLETELY SIMULATE NATURAL CONDITIONS ARE PROVIDED with closed drying systems.
