Fast, efficient industrial freezing
IPCO advanced industrial freezing equipment is used around the world. By combining an air freezer with the thermal efficiency of stainless steel freezer belts, we can help you achieve faster freezing times and superior product quality, while also ensuring the most efficient use of energy. Suitable for food industry freezing and many other applications.
Industrial freezing – whatever your application
Freezing systems used in food industry applications make up most of the contact freezer applications worldwide. IPCO’s continuous, freezing conveyor belt systems provide reliable and hygienic freezing and freeze drying of food.
Our industrial freezer systems can be tailored to meet any requirement so even if your application sits outside the food industry, IPCO can help.
Efficient conveyor belt freezing
Some goods require rapid freeze drying, others require the application of slower, more gradual air blast cooling system technology along a continuously running freeze belt.
A conventional air blast freezer conveyor sees freezing air blown onto the product and under the belt.
Impingement freezing uses high-velocity freezing air jets to accelerate the industrial freezing process.
Whatever your product and whatever the freezing profile required, we have the continuous industrial freezing unit to match.

How it works
Our solutions
We can supply everything from a steel belt freezer and associated conveying equipment to a complete, fully integrated air freezer.
Freezing systems
Our air blast freezing conveyor systems can be supplied either with conventional air blasting technology or with IQF freezing technology. Or we can work with you to develop a bespoke industrial freezing steel belt system.
Either way, you benefit from our dedication and commitment to delivering the most efficient and appropriate solution to your requirements.
Steel belts and conveyor equipment
If you are an OEM, we can work hand-in-hand to ensure that our world-leading freezer belt technology is integrated into your system in a way that maximizes reliability, durability and productivity. Our expertise in steel belts is backed up by a comprehensive range of conveyor components, from standalone tracking solutions to complete lines.
