Founded in 1995 at our facility in Red Hill, Victoria, Totally Pure Fruits (TPF) is Australia’s longest-operating fruit freeze-drying facility, with over 30 years of experience.

At Totally Pure Fruits, we operate world-class, custom-built freeze-drying machines under our “Mock Enterprises” division. We provide bulk contract freeze-drying services for various fruit and vegetable products. Our gentle drying process preserves up to 95% of the nutrition and fiber, with no additives, preservatives, sugars, flavors, or colors.
It all began with an idea.
The story of Totally Pure Fruits began with a simple yet powerful idea. When we transitioned to biodynamic farming, we faced a challenge: a significant amount of second-grade fruit that couldn’t be sold, and with little financial return from apple juice, we needed a new solution. We were committed to growing fruit that met the strict standards of organic farming, which meant no additives or preservatives, and we needed a way to preserve that fruit naturally.
Neville Mock, driven by necessity and innovation, built a prototype freeze-dryer from an old beer keg, a simple, resourceful solution that would lay the foundation for what was to come. This humble beginning marked the birth of a vision: to freeze-dry fruit in line with organic requirements, creating a pure, natural product that would stand the test of time.
30 years later, that vision has grown into the largest and longest-operating fruit freeze-drying facility in Australia. What started as a small, innovative solution has turned into a thriving business, supplying some of the best freeze-dried fruit products available, without compromising on quality, sustainability, or the biodynamic principles that started it all.
