Liocreo has re-investigated the technology of lyophilization (freeze-drying or cryodesiccation) of foodstuffs (also applicable in pharmacology) and developed a unique patented technology.
Liocreo's cryodesiccation system consumes 75% less energy compared to other similar technologies on the market while achieving very high-quality dehydrated products, 100% healthy and with an extremely long shelf-life (2 years).
This is a revolutionary improvement, considering that the main cost of lyophilization is energy (80% of the total). Not only can you freeze-dry foodstuffs while maintaining their organoleptic properties intact at lower cost, but you also achieve a significantly higher grade of sustainability than your competitors.
Freeze-drying makes it possible to avoid the refrigeration chain for food conservation since cryodesiccation guarantees a shelf-life of two years without the need to refrigerate the products, substantially reducing CO₂ emissions.
Liocreo's aim is to market their patented technology and establish freeze-drying plants all over the world.
Liocreo's technology is intended for B2B companies in the food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals sectors who already apply lyophilization (and have an established customer base). They will have an opportunity to reduce the cost of this energy-intensive process by investing in an innovative new lyophilization plant (Industry 4.0 compliant).
