Voyager

HISTORY

The process of freeze-drying has been known for centuries by Andes people : it’s what happens at the top of high mountains where the ice sometimes disappear without any water coming down.

TECHNICAL

Freeze-drying consists in drawing out the water contained in the products after having deep frozen them by sublimation that is changing the water from a frozen condition to a vapor condition without going through the liquid condition.
This very gentle dehydration does not destroy the cells and fibres such as in the natural phenomena at high altitude. This gives the products their specificities and advantages.

PROFITS

The reduction of weight is from 90 to 95% for vegetables or fruits, from 60 to 80% for meat or fish.
Gustative qualities and dietetics are preserved as well as vitamins and cellular structures.
Main advantage : quick rehydration without cooking.
