What is Ice Manufacturing?
Ice manufacturing is the industrial process of creating different forms of ice products by controlled freezing of purified water by using special refrigeration equipment and systems. This is through the water treatment, purification, freezing, harvesting, and packaging of ice in various forms which include cube ice, flake ice, block ice, tube ice, and crushed ice. The ice manufacturing plants in the modern world include sophisticated refrigeration systems like ammonia or freon cooling systems to ensure the refrigeration systems can maintain the required temperatures and produce quality ice that can be used in food safety and hygiene. The production process involves installation of water filters to eliminate contaminants, automatic ice-making machines, storage space that is well insulated, and packaging machines. The ice plants serve a wide range of industries, such as food and beverage, healthcare, fisheries, construction, hospitality, and retail industries, offering the much-needed cooling to preserve, transport, and consume their products and services.
What is Driving the Ice Manufacturing Market?
The ice manufacturing market is conditioned by growing need by food and beverage industry, expansion at a fast pace of the hospitality and restaurant industry and expanding cold chain logistics services of the transportation of perishable products. The increasing demand of ice products is being brought about by increasing consumer preference of packaged and processed food, as well as the growing modern retail format of supermarkets and convenience stores. Moreover, the increasing size of the healthcare industry, especially in the developing world is spurring the demand of ice of medical grade to store pharmaceuticals and to use in hospitals. Increase in temperature and climatic change is also leading to higher consumption of cold drinks and ice-based products which increases the consumption more in the market. In addition, the growth of the fishing sector and seafood exports demand huge amounts of ice to preserve the food on its way. Market is also growing in the industrial applications in the construction sector in concrete cooling, chemical processing, and mining operations, as well as in the growing popularity of recreational activities and events that need ice supplies.
