What is the
Purpose of 0.25㎡ freeze dryer Runs?
Testing New Products: 0.25㎡ freeze dryer runs allow companies to test new recipes, formulations, packaging designs, or production processes on a small scale before committing to full-scale production.
Refining Processes: 0.25㎡ freeze dryer help identify potential problems or inefficiencies in the manufacturing process, allowing for optimization before scaling up.
Creating Market Samples: 0.25㎡ freeze dryer runs can produce small quantities of a product for market testing, sales samples, trade shows, or investor presentations.
Validating Production Plans: 0.25㎡ freeze dryer help companies validate their production plans and demonstrate to co-packers that the product is ready for full-scale bottling.
What types of food can be processed in a small scale freeze dryer?
-Powders: FD Instant Coffee, FD Instant Tea, FD Instant Fruit Powder, FD Milk Products
-Pieces/Chunks: FD Fruits, FD Vegetables, FD Meats, FD Seafoods
-Flakes/Granules: FD Herbs, FD Egg Products
-Liquid-Based (Pre-Freeze-Drying): FD Soups, FD Culture Products

FAQ
Why You Need a small scale freeze dryer?
1. Affordable Entry Point
Large industrial freeze dryers require a major investment, but a small scale freeze dryer lets you test the technology without a huge upfront cost.
Perfect for hobbyists, startups, and small businesses who want to validate their needs before scaling up.
2. Perfect for Research & Development
Test different materials (coffee, herbs, vaccines, or even pet food) in small batches to optimize drying times and quality.
Avoid wasting expensive ingredients by fine-tuning your process before moving to large-scale production.
3. Space-Efficient & Easy to Use
Fits comfortably in home kitchens, labs, or small workshops—no need for a dedicated facility.
Many models are plug-and-play, requiring minimal setup compared to industrial machines.
4. Faster Processing for Quick Results
small scale freeze dryer much faster than large commercial units, allowing for rapid experimentation.
Ideal for product development, whether you're crafting gourmet snacks, supplements, or lab samples.
5. Lower Risk Before Scaling Up
What if freeze-drying isn’t right for your product? A small unit lets you test feasibility before committing to expensive equipment.
If you do expand later, you’ll already have hands-on experience to optimize larger production.
Retains nutrients: Freeze-dried food retains up to 97% of its nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Long shelf life: Freeze-drying removes the potential for bacterial growth, so freeze-dried food can last for years. Maintains flavor and texture: Freeze-drying preserves the original shape, flavor, and texture of food. Sustainable: Freeze-drying reduces food waste and transportation and storage costs.
Freeze drying works by first freezing a substance, then lowering the pressure around it to a vacuum, which allows the frozen water to directly transition from a solid (ice) to a gas (water vapor) through a process called sublimation, effectively removing the water content without going through a liquid phase, thus preserving the material's structure and properties; this is often used to preserve food, pharmaceuticals, and biological samples by significantly extending their shelf life.
We Dalian Iceberg produce and supply freeze drying equipment with the below types and sizes: 1)Type: Industrial scale of freeze dryers with internal assembly of vapor trap(s) with separate condensers performing the functions of alternative vapour trapping and de-icing Sizes: A50, A75, A100, A125 and A200 2)Type: Pilot Freeze-dryers with one-time condenser Size: A5, A10, A20, A30 We can also develop other model of pilot freeze-dryers according to customer’s demands
