Arctic Rain Cooling

Hydrocooler's are systems designed to precool fresh fruits and vegetables. The custom designed, modular systems are available ranging in size from 10 feet to 60 feet in length and they feature a tunnel and chilling tank that is completely insulated to minimize thermal loss while increasing cooling efficiency.

Vacuum & Forced Air Cooling

When the vacuum degree of chamber reaches the saturated pressure of water vapor corresponding to the temperature of produce, the water in the surface clearance of produce like fruits and vegetables start to vapor, and the evaporation will bring away heat to lower the temperature of produce.

Ice Banks

Ice banks are ice making and storing systems that are important for a number of industrial and commercial applications. They can be made to be portable or for permanent installation. The ice production and storage capacity can also be customized to fit customer needs and may range anywhere from 5 to 100 tons.

Ice Storage Bins

Ice storage bins offer a flexible solution to ice storage. They come equipped with a sloped bottom for easy distribution of ice. They are ideal for smaller, mini portable ice making and storage. A variety of customizable options are available so that these bins can be perfectly configured to customer needs.

Ice Rake Bins

Ice rake bins are designed to rake the ice for convenient distribution. Models of varying capacity all the way up to 300 tons or greater are available. The systems feature sturdy frame girders that practically eliminate rake hangups. The rakes themselves are hot-dipped galvanized and sport heavy duty rake carrier chains.

Ice Crusher & Blower

Specialized in the crushing and blowing of various ice types including fragmented, tube, or block ice. This makes them ideal for industries such as fish & produce, agricultural, concrete, and entertainment. Units are designed to be simple and efficient and can be driven by either electric motors or by diesel engines.

Scales & Pneumatic Blowers

Scales which can weigh up to 150-2000+ pounds of ice depending on the model available. All models feature weigh hoppers equipped with right and left hand discharge screws to make emptying of the ice easy. Our pneumatic ice blowers are also fully customizable and can bring customers blowing distances of up to 600 feet.

Slush Ice Cooling

Our slush ice cooling systems combine snow ice and water to create a slush which acts as a kind of liquid ice. This slush can then be injected over vegetables and produce such as leafy greens, broccoli, sweet corn, and more to create instantly cooled vegetable that are blanketed in snow.
