The company uses freeze-drying to preserve fruits and vegetables. Thus, recognizing the need for constant innovation and expansion and the growing demand for healthier fruits and vegetables, Gemuani developed and opened a state- of - the - art freeze- drying facility with funding from the Agency for Agricultural Project Management(APMA) of the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development with USAID support through the REAP program.
Freeze drying is an all-natural process that removes 97% of moisture from fresh fruits and vegetables and retains up to 98% of the vitamins and nutrients found in fresh fruit. Raw materials are deep-frozen, then transferred to a freeze-drying chamber where moisture, which quickly transforms into a gaseous form, is removed under low pressure without the use of heat.
Freeze drying - technically known as lyophilization, lyophilization, or cryo-drying - is a dehydration process commonly used to preserve perishable materials or to facilitate their transport.
The freeze-drying process was invented in 1906 in Paris. In 1911, a freeze-drying method was developed to preserve the live rabies virus, which eventually led to the creation of the first rabies vaccine. Modern freeze drying was developed during World War II to preserve blood serum sent to Europe from the United States to treat the wounded.
Soon thereafter, the freeze drying process was applied to penicillin and bones, and lyophilization became recognized as an important method for preserving biological substances. Since then, freeze drying has been used as a method for preserving or processing a wide variety of products.
Our freeze-drying process removes 97% of moisture from fresh fruits and vegetables, retaining up to 98% of vitamins, bio-active ingredients and nutrients.
