Howe Rapid Freeze ice flakers have been used by supermarkets worldwide for food cooling applications such as seafood displays, and produce counters where cooled products equals fresh products.

QUALITY ICE

Supermarkets need flake ice to attractively display products in the meat, produce seafood and delicatessen departments. Many of the products in these highly visible areas of the store provide stores with their highest profit margins. In addition, attractive food displays using quality ice offer stores an important opportunity to distinguish themselves from competitors.

Howe Flake Ice...

  • sparkles more than other ice, making products appear fresher; and is easy to work with, allowing creative displays.
  • cushions products against damage and reduces product weight loss due to dehydration more effectively than other forms of refrigeration.
  • cools products more quickly than other forms of ice because it reaches a temperature of 22°F.
  • Provides greater surface contact area (17,000 square ft. per ton) for products, cooling the products to a uniform temperature.
  • extends the shelf life of products.
