Buyer Questions
Drying & sterilization FAQs
Which dryer should I pair with sterilization?
It depends on the product: hot-air and mesh-belt dryers suit most fruits and vegetables, while vacuum freeze drying preserves premium products. We then add retort sterilization matched to your package type.
Is the thermal process verifiable for our food-safety records?
Every retort cycle is logged, so the thermal process is verifiable for your own food-safety documentation. Contact surfaces are food-grade SS304. Tell us the destination market and we confirm in writing before the order which certificates and documents we can supply.
