In the meat processing industry, temperature control is critical for food safety and product quality. From slaughter to packaging, ice plays a vital role in cooling, preserving and transporting meat. Over the years, refrigeration technology has evolved to meet the stringent hygiene and preservation standards of modern meat processing plants, slaughterhouses and cold chain distribution centers.


Demand for integrated cold chain solutions, including flake ice machines, block ice machines, walk-in coolers and blast freezers,,has surged, especially among large meat processors and frozen food suppliers.
Ice Demand in the Meat Processing Industry
Flake Ice – Ideal for Direct Contact with Meat
Flake ice is widely used in meat processing due to its soft texture and fast cooling effect. It can completely cover the surface of meat, quickly reduce the temperature and prevent bacterial growth. Flake ice is essential in the following areas:
- Freezing fresh meat and poultry after slaughter
- Cold mixing in sausage and minced meat production
- Seafood processing and refrigerated display
- Preserving meat during short-distance transportation
Pecold’s industrial flake ice machines provide reliable ice production, easy operation and high hygiene standards.
Block Ice – Bulk Storage and Transport Cooling
Block ice provides long-lasting cooling, ideal for:
- Export packaging of frozen meats
- Long-haul refrigerated transport
- Crushed ice applications for flexible meat cooling needs
Offering brine and direct cooling systems with up to 20 tons per day, Pecold’s block ice machines provide consistent and energy-efficient performance in high-volume environments.
