Solar Drying & Dehydration Solutions for Rural Food Enterprises
At Kinnovation Trading Pvt. Ltd., we empower rural entrepreneurs and agro-businesses across Nepal to transform local crops into high-value, market-ready foods using advanced solar dehydration and smart drying technologies.
Solar Greenhouse Dryers: Clean, Fast & Hygienic
Our solar greenhouse dryers offer a controlled drying environment that slashes drying time by 50-80% or more compared to traditional sun drying, while maintaining hygiene and reducing contamination risk. Built from greenhouse panels, exhaust fans, and simple racks, they are scalable and easy to operate—even in remote communities.
Grid Powered Heat Pump Dehydrators: Year Round Smart Drying
We offer heat pump dehydrators energy-efficient systems that gently remove moisture at low temperatures (30–75 °C), preserving taste, colour and nutrients, while consuming 50–60% less energy than conventional dryers. Perfect for drying fruits, vegetables, herbs, fish, mushrooms and more—even during the rainy season.
Contect to Market: Connect products to domestic & international markets.
Home-Based Micro Enterprise Design (Food Processing & Dehydration)
A home-based micro food enterprise gives women the opportunity to turn seasonal or surplus local produce into high-value products. With just a small dehydrator, slicer, and sealer, women can process food at home in their spare time—transforming cultural food knowledge into income generation.
💡 Small action, big results: A little investment can create lasting livelihood opportunities.

- Cut energy costs as they use free sunlight.
Yes! We design affordable, user-friendly solar and heat-pump dryers for farmers, cooperatives, and small entrepreneurs to dehydrate products like chilies, ginger, cardamom, tomatoes, biscuits, and noodles.
A heat-pump dryer uses a controlled heating and dehumidification system powered by electricity (grid or solar), allowing drying even in cloudy or rainy conditions. Unlike traditional solar dryers, it offers consistent drying throughout the year and is ideal for commercial-scale agro-processing.
We encourage farmers to dry their produce when prices are low, add value, and sell high-quality dehydrated products. We provide technology, training, and market linkages to empower farmers as entrepreneurs.
A solar greenhouse dryer is a covered structure that uses solar energy to dry fruits, vegetables, and other agro-products in a clean, controlled environment, reducing drying time and maintaining hygiene.
