Comparison guide for common industrial ice types and their best-fit applications.
Tube, flake and block ice solve different cooling problems. Choosing the wrong ice type can increase operating cost, reduce cooling efficiency or create handling problems.
Tube ice
Tube ice is clean, uniform and suitable for edible ice, beverage and packaged ice markets.
Flake ice
Flake ice has a large surface area and cools quickly, making it ideal for seafood, food processing and concrete cooling.
Block ice
Block ice melts slowly and is suitable for storage, transport and fishery supply where handling durability matters.
