Freshline® Glazing Solutions
Create and protect your IQF products with a glaze of cryogenically-frozen water
Are you looking to produce an IQF shrimp, fruit, or vegetable product with a protective layer of frozen water glaze? Or are your defrosted premium IQF products suffering from damage caused by impact during transportation?
Our experts have decades of expertise and know how around how to glaze each IQF product with the perfect amount of water. As well as improving the general appearance of your frozen product, the frozen layer of water will act as a protective buffer during handling and distribution. The water can be either sprayed or poured over already-frozen shrimp, or other IQF products, before being loaded into the freezer; or applied in stages to create a thicker and tougher protective glaze layer around your product. In addition, the colder temperatures of cryogenics will help you achieve higher coating ratios compared to traditional mechanical freezers.
Whether your specific process requires small or larger coating ratios, our experts will be there to guide you along the way and help you determine the best solution for you.
