In a groundbreaking development for food safety and emergency preparation, a UAE-based company, red planet, Ready-to-Eat is introducing food that can remain consumable for 25 years. These ultra-long shelf-lif food are made possible by state-of-the-art freeze-drying technology that maintains taste, nutrition and safety, without all artificial preservatives or refrigeration. The process explained by Red Planet CEO Jasim al Noviis involves removing more than 95 percent moisture from food in careful controlled environment.“We begin by removing moisture from food in a controlled environment, which helps maintain its original taste, texture and, most important, nutritional value,” Al Nois said. “From there, we seal it into multi-layered, oxygen-absorbed packaging that protects against light, air and moisture. Ensure that the product remains safe, fresh and nutritious for up to 25 years, without refrigeration or preservatives.,
More than shelf life: a commitment for food security
Although the product has not yet reached the UAE retail shelves, the Red Planet has already completed a fully developed menu and is targeting important areas:
- Humanitarian aid organization
- Armed force
- Space agencies
- Government institutions
Al Noise emphasized widespread mission behind technology:“We do not just focus on expanding shelf life. For us, food safety is more than collecting something for emergency-it is about reliable, nutritious food access to those who really want to eat, whether it is five, ten, or even twenty five years from now,” he said. While the retail availability is in the pipeline, the red planet is actively promoting its innovation for strategic partners and global stakeholders. Recently, it attended the Saudi Food Show 2025, which was held in Riyadh from 12 to 14 May, where the company showed how its solutions contribute to stability, emergency preparations and long -term nutrition throughout the region.
Miscellaneous, halal-tasked menu with local taste
Prasad of Red Planet is both diverse and culturally conscious. The firm offers a mixture of local emerti dishes and international favorite, which are all halal-attested. His ready-to-eat menu includes:
- chicken biryani
- Meat muchabos
- Balleet with eggs
- Fried eggs
- Pasta with minced meat
- Vegetable rice
Each recipe is also engineered to maintain its original taste and nutritional profile in extreme conditions.“We are not only offering variations for this. Each dish is carefully designed to maintain its taste, texture and nutritional content, even in a rigid environment,” Al Nois said. “For us, food is more than fuel, it is a source of rest, reminiscent of the house, and a major element of flexibility.”
Viewing further: approval and retail launch
Red Planet is currently in the final stages of obtaining regulatory approval in the UAE, an important step before the products reach the store shelves.“This is not just a formality, it is a main part of our promise to give food that is not only safe and high quality, but also by communities and institutions that we serve,” said Al Nois. “I personally look after this part of this process because it matters deeply to us.” Once the regulators receive a green light, consumers in the UAE may expect to see the red planets available for retail purchase, which take a big step in accessible, long -lasting and high quality food security solutions made in the United Arab Emirates.
