SIENO Unveils “Vacuum Pulsed Freeze Dryer” Freeze-drying efficiency increased by a revolutionary 30%–50%

On January 31, 2026, at the “Pulsating Renewal—SIENO 2026 Annual Conference and New Product Launch,” SIENO Freeze-Drying Technology Research Institute (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd. officially unveiled its independently developed “Vacuum Pulsating Freeze-Dryer.” Under typical food freeze-drying conditions, this machine utilizes an optimized vacuum pulsation drying process to increase overall freeze-drying efficiency by approximately 30%–50% compared to traditional continuous constant-vacuum modes, marking a significant breakthrough in the field of freeze-drying technology.

SIENO Research Institute Brings Together China’s Top Scientific Talent
Underpinning this technological breakthrough is the top-tier academic team assembled by the SIENO Freeze-Drying Technology Research Institute. Leading scholars in China’s freeze-drying technology field—including Professor Xiao Hongwei of China Agricultural University, Professor Zhang Weipeng of Beijing Technology and Business University, Professor Wang Dong of Shaanxi University of Science and Technology, and Professor Wang Jun of Northwest A&F University—form the core team of the institute, establishing SIENO Research Institute as one of the country’s most cutting-edge R&D institutions in freeze-drying technology.


A Leap in Efficiency Brought by Vacuum Pulsed Drying
At the press conference, Li Suobin, Chairman of Jiangsu BOLAIKE, outlined SIENO’s future development blueprint: “Technological innovation is the core driver of corporate development. The breakthrough in vacuum pulsed drying technology is not only a crucial step in SIENO’s transformation from a freeze-drying equipment manufacturer to a provider of comprehensive freeze-drying solutions, but also a strategic choice to build a highly efficient and intelligent future for the entire industry. We believe this technology has the potential to significantly raise the efficiency ceiling of existing freeze-drying production across multiple application scenarios, creating greater value for our customers.”

Zhou Ping, Marketing Director at SIENO, went on to explain the significance of this technological breakthrough: “The new vacuum pulsation technology can further increase freeze-drying efficiency by 30% to 50%. This is not merely a numerical improvement, but a paradigm shift in technology, enabling SIENO to further distance itself from homogeneous price competition and establish a new technological moat. Our vacuum pulsation freeze-dryer will officially go on sale in the second half of 2026.”

Academic Experts Provide In-Depth Analysis of the Technology’s Value
At the press conference, four professors from leading universities offered in-depth analyses of vacuum pulsed drying technology based on their respective fields of research:
Professor Xiao Hongwei from China Agricultural University systematically traced the development history of freeze-drying technology. He demonstrated the technology’s widespread applications across various sectors, including food and pharmaceuticals, and conducted a comparative analysis of the technical characteristics of representative equipment both domestically and internationally. Building on this, he noted that vacuum pulsed drying technology is poised to empower more industrial sectors and lead a new trend toward green, high-quality freeze-drying production.

Strategic Transition from Equipment Manufacturer to Solution Provider
In fact, the launch of this vacuum pulsed freeze-drying technology was no accident; rather, it is a culmination of SIENO’s continuous technological advancements and collaborative innovation among industry, academia, and research institutions in recent years. In 2025, SIENO achieved a milestone breakthrough. In 2026, SIENO will embark on a strategic transformation from an equipment supplier to a solution provider, leveraging vacuum pulsation technology as its core to offer customers a comprehensive solution comprising “process packages + customized equipment + ongoing support.”

The newly launched vacuum pulsation freeze-drying machine is not merely a single product; it serves as the key vehicle for SIENO’s transition to a “solution provider.”

Mr. Li Junkai, General Manager of SIENO, stated: “We will use this technology as our core to provide customers with end-to-end solutions, ranging from process optimization and equipment selection to production guidance.”

At the launch event, Beijing Technology and Business University officially appointed Li Junkai as a “Graduate Student Practice Mentor.” This initiative, which deeply integrates industry, academia, and research, will further promote the organic combination of theoretical innovation and practical application.

As freeze-drying technology finds increasingly widespread application in sectors such as food and pharmaceuticals, the technical breakthrough achieved by SIENO through its “Vacuum Pulsed Freeze Dryer” not only significantly enhances industrial efficiency but also paves a new path for structural upgrades and model innovation within the industry. Transitioning from a traditional equipment manufacturer to a comprehensive solutions provider, SIENO is leveraging its technical expertise and industrial vision to lead the freeze-drying industry into a new era of high efficiency, environmental sustainability, and intelligence, while continuously driving the coordinated development and value enhancement of the industrial chain.
