From traditional freezing methods to cutting-edge tech, manufacturers are striving for more efficient production methods that also enhance quality and consumer appeal.
At Messer’s Technical Center in Cleveland, Ohio, over two dozen engineers and gas application experts work inside a 50,000-square-foot building developing and testing freezing and chilling applications for the F&B industry using products submitted by customers. Testing capabilities include calorimetry to determine specific heat loads, yield and moisture retention, quality tests and developing ideal processing parameters for chilling, crusting or freezing specific foods.
