Heavy duty industrial ice machines

In the refrigeration industry there are a number of standards to define the best quality in terms of ice making and the machines intended for it. One of these is the presence of high technology in each of the elements and pieces that are part of these; but is it enough with only the highest quality technology? Features such as efficiency, adaptability and reliability are part of the requirements sought by many companies that make use of an industrial ice machine, and these words are precisely those that define the equipment manufactured by A&V Refrigeration. Read here: A&V Refrigeration, this is how our history begins Fragmented ice (also known as flake ice) is ideal for the trade of: Fish and seafood. Vegetable processing. Industrial kitchens. Among others… Our machines are capable of producing between 2,000 pounds (909 kg) and 40,000 pounds (18,181 kg) of flake ice in just 24 hours, and their thickness is adjustable from ⅛” (3 mm) to ⅝” (16 mm) for greater flexibility.  This is achievable because key parts, such as the evaporators, are constructed using a vertical tube design that allows ice to form on both the inner and outer walls, providing maximum efficiency and greater

A&V Refrigeration makes its mark in the food and the construction industry

A&V Refrigeration makes its mark in the food and the construction industry

The food industry requires a series of vitally important processes for the preservation of its elements. One of them is to maintain the required cold chain in optimal conditions.  Today’s consumers demand high-quality standards in food and beverage processing. Refrigeration must be efficient and robust enough to cope with the rigorous demands of the food industry. Do you think large companies use ordinary or homemade ice? Well no, it is in these spaces that shaved ice comes into the picture. Low-temperature rapid cooling is the key to the long-term preservation of high-quality foods, as it perfectly preserves the original quality and flavor of the food.  Cracked Ice or Flake Ice is a great ally for the trade of: Fish and seafood. Poultry. Vegetable processing. Among others. This is because it is a material that is easy to store and handle, it can be used immediately after its manufacture. In terms of vegetable processing, it offers faster cooling for storage and transportation, which makes its use more convenient, especially in food preservation and refrigeration of large proportions. A&V Refrigeration ice machines have become essential equipment for various industries, but their function in the food industry has been one of the most

Cracked Ice or Flake Ice: cost-effective manufacturing with more advantages

In large cubes, spheres, frappé and even flakes, there are many different types of ices that surround the food and construction industry and although some processes may be somewhat similar in manufacturing, not all have the same advantages for your business.  Classic ices are commonly used for quick drink coolers and some exquisite cocktails. However, Cracked Ice or Flake Ice are leading the way in the large-scale refrigeration industry. The most common has been Cracked Ice or Flake Ice, which has many more advantages for the commercial industry, and is the best alternative for fish and seafood preservation, vegetable processing, and even for the construction industry. It maintains unique properties that provide greater cooling efficiency than any other type of ice, in addition to maintaining the cold chain and prolonging the shelf life of products, especially those that are perishable. For example, for the fish and seafood trade, fragmented ice is often used in processes such as: Preserving maximum freshness of fish, Maintaining the temperature of fish on ships, Cooling fish for distribution and transport, Freezing of display cases for wholesale and retail distribution. It’s great attraction also lies in its particular shape because it cushions the seafood against damage.
