SPRAY DRYING
TECHNOLOGY FOR PRODUCT DURABILITY AND QUALITY
What is spray drying?
Spray drying is one of the most commonly used methods for drying liquid raw materials in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. Thanks to its efficiency and versatility, this process preserves the key properties of products while extending their shelf life and making storage and transport easier.
How does the drying process work?
Spray drying is a rapid process that transforms a liquid, emulsion, or suspension into a powder by spraying it into a chamber with hot air. The high temperature causes immediate water evaporation, converting the liquid into a fine, free-flowing powder. With carefully adjusted parameters, the process minimizes the risk of thermal degradation of valuable nutrients.

BENEFITS
OF SPRAY DRYING
EXTENDED
SHELF LIFE
Removing almost all water makes the product resistant to mold, bacteria, and yeast growth, significantly extending its shelf life.
CONSISTENT
QUALITY & REPEATABILITY
Spray drying enables precise control of all parameters, ensuring uniformity and consistency in every batch.
EASY
STORAGE & LOGISTICS
As a powder, the final product is more concentrated and space-efficient, making it easier to store, pack, and transport.
NUTRIENT RETENTION
Thanks to very short drying times and rapid water evaporation, many sensitive compounds (vitamins, enzymes, aromas) retain their properties. Unlike other methods, spray-dried products are not exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
EXCELLENT SOLUBILITY
Particles obtained through spray drying are small and uniform, dissolving perfectly in water and other liquids. Ideal for instant products such as soups, sauces, extracts, protein isolates, instant coffee, and milk powder.
MICROENCAPSULATION
OF INGREDIENTS
During drying, microencapsulation occurs—sensitive substances (e.g. essential oils, probiotics, vitamins) are enclosed in carriers like maltodextrin or starch. This protects them from light, oxygen, and heat, while allowing controlled release over time.
A MODERN APPROACH
TO SPRAY DRYING
We combine innovative technologies, outstanding durability, and excellent taste,
offering our Clients products of the highest quality.
BOX-TYPE SPRAY DRYER
COMPACT DESIGN WITH HIGH ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND EASY OPERATION!
HORIZONTAL BOX DESIGN
Takes up less space than traditional vertical drying towers, allowing installation in existing buildings such as warehouses and reducing investment costs.
NOZZLE ATOMIZATION
The use of nozzles ensures better powder structure and minimizes energy losses.
INTEGRATED BAG FILTER
No external channels for powder transport, which minimizes product losses and simplifies cleaning.
ADVANCED INSULATION
The drying chamber is made of seamless, multilayer stainless steel with injected polyurethane foam, providing superior thermal insulation and reducing heat loss.
HEAT RECOVERY
The system recovers heat from the hot exhaust air leaving the drying chamber, increasing the overall energy efficiency of the process.
ATEX COMPLIANCE
The dryer is certified according to ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU, ensuring safe operation in potentially explosive atmospheres.
