About Botanique Preservation Equipment, Inc.
Richard DeLong started Botanique Preservation Equipment, Inc. in 1989 in order to provide the botanical industry with a new and innovative way to preserve botanicals by using freeze drying technology. Over the next 15 years, he designed 10 new models of freeze dryers for the botanical industries and had them built to his specifications.
The majority of these freeze dryers were referred to as “general purpose”, in that they could be modified for many other freeze-drying purposes. This included taxidermy, water damaged document recovery, archeological salvage, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical preservation, freeze drying food, and a whole host of laboratory uses.
From the very beginning, Richard and his wife Rose, shared their knowledge of freeze-drying botanicals through 325 training classes spanning 30 years. Much of the emphasis in this training revolved around the preservation of “keepsake flowers”, such as bridal bouquets and sympathy flowers. Dan Marcey joined the company and is now the national marketing, sales, and training manager for freeze dryers in the floral industry.
In 2017, Richard started a new chapter in botanical preservation in the hemp, and eventually the cannabis industry, when he preserved some hemp flower for a potential client. This has opened up an entirely new clientele for Botanique CannaFreeze. In addition, Botanique has began to distribute freeeze dryers into the food industry NutriFreeze.
