What are Blast Freezers For?

When you are looking for a new freezer for your business, there are a variety options to choose from. From shock freezers to blast freezers, but what’s the difference? Today we are going to describe exactly what’s a “blast freezer” and why is it the tool that businesses use to freeze their products. With an ever growing global industry, professional business owners are now realizing that in order to keep up with the rest of the world, first they have to make sure they are able to keep up with growing global demands for their products via improving production speed and quality. If production is increased, making sure the products can maintain said quality comes down to just how well they preserve their product. That is where blast freezers come into play. It is a quick freezing solution for professional business owners.

Let’s be clear that a blast freezer is NOT a blast chiller, these are two completely different cooling machines.

BLAST CHILLER

Used to cool products quickly to about 3 C for short period preservation and fast defrosting purposes.
If you want to know more, we talk about how Blast Chillers Work in our article.

BLAST FREEZER

Also known as Flash Freezers; Rapidly freeze products well below water’s freezing temperatures (0 C and below*) This extreme freezing atmosphere created by the blast freezer (flash freezer) stops bacterial growth. This allows business owners to preserve their products for a longer period of time.

Overview

Most blast freezers can quickly reach freezing temperature in a rapid pace not see in regular freezers. Depending on the blast freezer model and size, temperature can reach from -18 C to -45C. Now, just how fast a blast freezer reaches these temperature is one of the major differences between different blast freezer manufacturers.

Blast Freezers reach these temperatures almost instantly, allowing the products that are inside to freeze within 30 to 90 minutes, compared to shock freezers that usually take 90 to 120 minutes, the main difference is the speed at which it can completely freeze a product. The good thing about deciding to purchase a blast freezer is the fact that there is a large variety to choose from. From room sized to table size blast freezers. Also, freezing the product is quite different depending on the model.

Depending on the blast freezer you invest in for your business, the speed and overall freezing quality may change. When investing in a Blast Freezer, it is a very important investment to your company as ultimately the freezer that you choose will decide how well your products are preserved after being made. And that is where a lot of companies make the mistake to invest in relatively cheap or affordable blast freezers that could ultimately not increase revenue nor production speeds due to the cheap machines limitations. Limiting your business via investing in under priced tools is one of the biggest mistakes that start-ups or small businesses make.
