Here you can find the processes of typical gas applications in the food and drink industry.
Mixing & Tumbling
In the meat and poultry industry, the temperature throughout the process must be frequently controlled. It’s especially necessary in the mixing and grinding processes.
Inerting
Storage tanks, transfer pipelines and the head space in bottles and containers are commonly inerted, in order to keep oxygen away from the product.
Modified Atmosphere Packaging
Besides optimal quality and extended shelf life, improved convenience is key for many new food products. In order to satisfy these customer requirements, we recommend the use of modified atmosphere packaging.
Freezing & Chilling
In the food industry many products must be quickly chilled or frozen, in order to bring them to a safe temperature as quickly as possible.
Hardening
For the processing of soft and sticky foods, a consistent shape can be easily achieved using cryogenic hardening techniques.
IQF(Individually Quick Frozen)
Nowadays, many products are sold separately and are pre-portioned. As a result, the meat and pasta, rice, poultry, sea food, vegetable parts or mixtures of these products are individually quick frozen.
Coating
The coating of small food products with sauce, marinade or chocolate can be easily performed by using cryogenic refrigeration techniques.
