Individual Quick Frozen Freezer Market

IQF is a technology that allows the freezing on an individual piece of product separately from the others. Due to this, the quality of the finished IQF product is superior compared to the one of a product frozen by cold store freezing.

The main difference is the size and quantity of the frozen product; cold store freezing is used for large volumes of bigger sized products such as whole chicken or packed meat. IQF, on the other hand, is ideal for freezing smaller products such as small fruit, fruit cubes, vegetables, cheese, pasta, etc.

Using IQF technology will significantly reduce the ice formation on the product, due to the fact that the product is frozen fast this leads to much smaller ice crystals compared to cold Store Freezing. Slow freezing causes large ice crystals to form, and this affects the integrity of cells, stretching the membrane, the larger the crystals the more damage the product will suffer. The deterioration is irreversible, meaning that the texture of the product will not return after thawing. With IQF there is a minimal formation of ice crystals, and this will help the product keep its texture until first defrost.
