Bolaike Showcases at the 9th World Bird's Nest and Natural Tonic Products Expo

On August 7, Jiangsu Bolaike appeared at the 9th World Bird's Nest and Natural Tonic Products Expo (Shanghai New International Expo Centre). As a globally renowned manufacturer of industrial freeze-drying equipment, Bolaike showcased freeze-dried bird's nest finished products and a complete set of freeze-drying solutions for tonic products on site, attracting many bird's nest and tonic product brands to stop and exchange ideas.

Advantages of Freeze-Drying Technology

The core nutritional value of bird's nest lies in active ingredients such as sialic acid (edible bird's nest acid), saponins, and amino acids. Traditional drying relies on high-temperature processing, which easily leads to protein denaturation and significant loss of active ingredients. Research shows that the sialic acid loss rate of traditionally hot-air-dried bird's nest is approximately 15% to 20%. Freeze-drying technology, on the other hand, operates entirely in a low-temperature, low-pressure environment, helping to better retain active substances, with the sialic acid retention rate of freeze-dried bird's nest reaching over 90%. Freeze-dried bird's nest not only restores the taste and shape of the fresh product after rehydration, but can also be stored long-term at room temperature without the need for cold-chain transportation.

Production Capability and Equipment

Bolaike has previously completed experimental sampling and OEM production of freeze-dried bird's nest for numerous companies, accumulating mature processes ranging from soaking, pre-freezing, to staged, precisely temperature-controlled heating and drying. The freeze-dried bird's nest finished products displayed on site were fluffy and intact, without collapse or sticking, and were of good appearance, earning recognition from many visitors.

Equipment Highlights

1. Bolaike's medium-sized freeze-drying equipment is equipped with double-layer radiation plates with independent hot and cold circuits, controlling the temperature difference between shelves to within ±1°C, effectively preventing localized overheating from damaging active ingredients and ensuring stable product quality.
2. Pre-freezing and drying are completed in the same chamber, so equipment can be put into production as soon as it enters the workshop and is connected to water and electricity.
3. Medium and large equipment come standard with energy recovery and intelligent control systems, reducing overall energy consumption by 20% to 30% compared to traditional equipment; electricity savings over a five-year operating cycle can offset the cost of half a unit of equipment.

Collaboration Opportunities

During the expo, the Bolaike team engaged in in-depth exchanges with numerous bird's nest and tonic product brands. Companies with needs for freeze-dried tonic product development or equipment customization are welcome to send samples for freeze-drying trials, or to consult about cooperation through official channels.
