THE STORY OF KAVALI
Our story starts with the wish to produce honey in powder form. The special dehydration technology made it possible, but further experiments showed that the technology was also ideal for preserving fruits and vegetables. The result of several years of research and development is a special microwave vacuum drying process called biophilization.
Our first biophilization production plant opened in Mórahalom in autumn 2022, where KAVALI fruit and vegetable snacks are produced, offering a continuously expanding range of products.
We pay particular attention to sourcing ingredients from local producers whenever possible, in a predictable way so that farmers can plan ahead with us.
The research and development was carried out by MPM Research Ltd. MPM is an industrial incubation center which offers professional support for development projects. Our team specializes primarily in the design and construction of manufacturing plants, industrial machines and manufacturing software. Our developments provide innovative solutions using the latest research and technology.
BIOPHILIZATION
The state-of-the-art drying process allows additive-free food preservation. Due to this unique technology, the production process is far more energy-efficient and gentle than lyophilization or air drying, and the functional and biologically active components (e.g. flavorings, vitamins, antioxidants, natural sugars) are preserved to a much greater extent.
The high content of natural bioactive compounds of foods dried by a combination of microwave and vacuum is due to low temperatures, low oxygen levels and rapid processing.
Biophilization produces surprisingly crunchy dried fruit and vegetable products with a special texture and concentrated flavor.
