About us
ELENA is a family business. We have been using lyophilisation methods for three generations. These years of experience have allowed us to refine this technology almost to perfection. We run our production using a highly advanced and innovative machinery park on a global scale. Drawing on family tradition, we continuously develop our operations and apply this expertise to many innovative projects.
Our lyophilised products are of the highest quality, and the ELENA brand is a trusted Polish company recognised worldwide. Since 2011, we have expanded our activities to include dietary supplements based on fish collagen. These products have gained great popularity thanks to their effectiveness. This is a relatively new area of our production, of which we are particularly proud.

What is lyophilisation (freeze-drying)?
For years, we have been driven by a passion for healthy nutrition and have been using an innovative method of food preservation. Without unnecessary additives or chemical substances, the products in our range are created through sublimation drying, also known as lyophilisation. This is a method of preserving frozen food by removing water from it.
preservation of flavour, aroma and shape
very long shelf life
small packaging size and low weight
no added sugar, colourings or preservatives
lyophilised products retain most of their nutritional value
This process helps to preserve essential nutrients and flavour while extending the shelf life of food by protecting it from degradation and the growth of microorganisms. As a result, lyophilised food maintains its original properties and natural aromas. We also offer meals designed for later preparation – simply add hot water or milk. They are lightweight and easy to store, which is particularly beneficial for people who travel frequently or spend time outdoors.
The lyophilisation method in food
Compared with food that has been dried or chemically preserved, lyophilised food can be stored outside a fridge or freezer for many years without losing essential biochemical and microbiological properties. The lyophilisation process takes place at low temperatures, preserving most nutrients. Meals processed using this method do not require special storage agents or preservatives.
Crunchy lyophilised products
The lyophilised food we produce includes fruits and vegetables stored in tightly sealed packaging. This is important due to their hygroscopic properties – the ability to quickly absorb moisture from the environment. Thanks to the preservation of their nutritional qualities and flavour, they can be enjoyed as a light crunchy snack, a supplement to the daily diet, or a key ingredient in a wide variety of dishes – including porridges, oatmeals, baked goods and many other foods.
