We specialize in the cooling of both fish and the refrigerated storage areas and holds on fishing vessels. We also provide complete system installations and supply VCU Slurry Ice machines and VCU Flake Ice machines in various capacities.
VCU Flake ICE machine
Since 2004, we have specialized in ice machines, both slurry and flake ice systems. Our machines are installed on fishing vessels as well as at fish processing facilities.
Our flake ice machines are equipped with a vertical ice maker made entirely of stainless steel (SS-316) and feature a stationary drum. The advantage of a stationary drum is that the refrigerant cannot leak through the seals. As standard, the ice maker is also suitable for producing flake ice from seawater. The hardness of the ice can be adjusted by adding salt to the water. For this purpose, a special salt mixing pump and reservoir can be supplied.
VCU Flake Ice machines are available with capacities ranging from 500 kg up to 60 tons per day.
VCU Slurry Ice Machine
We supply VCU Slurry Ice machines in various capacities and can also provide full system installation. VCU’s Slurry Ice consists of a mixture of microscopic ice crystals. These slurry ice crystals are extremely small, just 5 microns (or 0.005 mm) in size. They completely surround the product, leaving no air between the product and the slurry ice. This results in maximum surface contact with the product to be cooled.
The outcome is the fastest possible transfer of cold, instantly chilling the product to its core. This process inhibits the growth of potentially harmful bacteria and slows down chemical reactions, significantly extending the product’s shelf life.
