According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Freeze-Drying Equipment Market Report by Dryer Type (Tray Style Freeze Dryers, Manifold Freeze Dryers, Rotary Freeze Dryers), Scale of Operation (Industrial Scale Freeze Dryer, Pilot Scale Freeze Dryer, Laboratory Scale Freeze Dryer), Application (Food Processing and Packaging, Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology, Biomedical Engineering, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” the global freeze-drying equipment market reached a value of USD 2.4. Billion in 2024. Also known as lyophilization or cryodesiccation, freeze-drying is a dehydration process wherein the product undergoes freezing, and theice is removed via sublimation. It does not lead to shrinkage or toughening of the product, thereby assisting in keeping its overall appearance and characteristics intact. It is employed in the food and beverage (F&B) sector to retain the fragrance and flavor of perishable products. Besides this, it is also utilized in the pharmaceuticals industry to extend the shelf life of heat-sensitive and thermolabile materials.
Global Freeze-Drying Equipment Market Trends:
