Export standards for dried food – The key for Vietnamese products to conquer international markets
In recent years, as the global market has become increasingly open and demanding, the phrase “ dried food export standards ” is no longer a term reserved for large enterprises. Even small and medium-sized agricultural processing facilities are faced with the problem of complying with requirements on product quality, hygiene, preservation and stability.
In this context, traditional drying technology with high temperature and manual control is gradually becoming obsolete. Instead, SUNSAY freeze dryer has become a strategic choice to help dried products not only meet domestic requirements but also qualify to enter the world.

When “standards” become barriers – or opportunities?
Many small-scale agricultural processors are often hesitant to mention the word “export” because they believe they do not have the necessary equipment, human resources or operating procedures. However, what few people realize is that most of the barriers do not lie in the product, but in the post-harvest processing stage, especially the drying stage.
Markets such as Europe, Japan or the US not only require products to be free of bacteria and chemical residues, but also set clear criteria for color, structure, flavor and nutritional value after processing.
A dried mango slice that is blackened, loses its natural scent or shrinks too much will be immediately considered “substandard”. Meanwhile, most traditional drying methods cannot precisely control temperature, humidity or time, leading to inconsistent product quality, especially in large-scale production.
That is when SUNSAY freeze dryer becomes a technological solution worth investing in – not only to “dry” raw materials, but to reshape the entire process of drying food towards international standards.
The difference of SUNSAY freeze drying lies in the output quality.
If you pay close attention, you will see that the technical standards for exported dried products – regardless of the market – are all divided into three main groups of requirements:
- Maintain sensory quality: color, shape, toughness or crispness, no burnt edges or color bleeding.
- Preserves nutritional value: retains vitamins, enzymes, antioxidants and natural flavors.
- Microbiological and humidity stability: ensures standard dryness (usually below 12%) and no mold growth during long-term storage.
SUNSAY freeze dryer operates based on the principle of circulating heat pump, drying at low temperature (25 – 50°C) and humidity is strictly controlled by automatic control system. During the whole process, there is no manual intervention, no high temperature to break the structure of raw materials, no hot wind to change the color or natural aroma.
Thanks to that, the dried products from SUNSAY freeze dryer always achieve the ideal dryness, uniformity and retain the sensory and nutritional values - a mandatory factor if you want to bring goods to supermarkets or participate in the export supply chain.
From Technology to Certification – The Foundation to Conquer the World Market
A significant difference of SUNSAY food dryer is the design and manufacturing materials according to food industry standards. The machine frame is made of POSCO 304 stainless steel – high-grade stainless steel, certified for food hygiene and safety, and does not corrode under long-term use.
The 2-layer insulated drying chamber helps to retain heat effectively, reduce power consumption and ensure a stable drying environment throughout the operation period. The removable stainless steel mesh drying tray system makes it easy to clean, avoiding cross-contamination of microorganisms or impurities – a very important factor in the process of assessing technical documents when applying for export certification such as HACCP, ISO 22000, Global GAP or FDA.
In addition, SUNSAY’s mid-range to high-end machines are also integrated with PLC – HMI control system, allowing to store drying formulas for each type of fruit or medicinal herb, ensuring that each drying batch always has the same quality. This is a factor that helps businesses build a stable product brand – something that foreign import partners highly appreciate.
Not just equipment but a complete solution
One of the common mistakes of businesses that are new to the drying processing industry is to only care about “buying machines”. However, to meet export standards, the machine is only a part of the overall production process. SUNSAY understands that, so it does not only stop at providing equipment, but also provides comprehensive advice on drying systems suitable for each product line and market target.
From analyzing raw material samples, consulting on machine types – to setting up a separate drying program according to each raw material’s characteristics, operating instructions, checking output quality and supporting technical documents – SUNSAY always accompanies customers as a technology transfer unit, not simply a machine seller.
This is especially important for businesses that are oriented towards exporting: the time to access standards will be shortened, the production process will be controlled from start to finish, minimizing the need for “trial – error – modification – modification” which is time-consuming and costly.
Vietnamese products – Global standards: no longer a distant dream
We all know that Vietnam is an agricultural country with a huge output of fruits, medicinal herbs and agricultural products. However, the situation of “raw export – low profit – high risk” is still persistent. Only when those products are processed, packaged and meet international standards, can their real value be enhanced.
Reality has proven: fruits dried by SUNSAY freeze dryers such as pineapple, mango, dragon fruit, jackfruit, banana, blueberry, etc. are being consumed well in markets such as Japan, Korea, EU. Enterprises using SUNSAY freeze dryers are not only successful domestically but also build a brand of dried products that meet international standards – with full certification, labeling, and transparent traceability.
That shows that the opportunity for Vietnamese dried products is huge – as long as we invest in the right direction and choose the right technology from the beginning.
Investing for Export – Starting with Standard Dryers
In the journey to conquer the international market, the quality of dried products is an important “passport”. To have good, stable and export-standard products, businesses must start from the root – that is, choosing the right processing equipment, especially in the drying stage.
SUNSAY freeze dryer is not only a production tool, but also a foundation for businesses to build international standard processes. From modern drying technology, quality control capabilities, to comprehensive support in technology transfer – all serve the ultimate goal: helping Vietnamese dried products to be globally competitive.
If you are planning to expand your market, access export channels or simply improve product quality to make a difference, this is the right time to invest. Let SUNSAY freeze dryer be the first step in your journey to conquer the world with Vietnamese agricultural products.
