Industrial and Recreational

IceGen holds numerous worldwide patents and maintains an experienced team of engineers and specialized operators committed to service our clients.

Precision Cooling Beyond Expectations

ICEGEN technology pushes the boundaries of what thermal systems can do—offering powerful, sustainable solutions across industrial and recreational sectors. Whether you’re mimicking natural snow for world-class sporting events or improving efficiency in industrial cleaning and marine applications, ICEGEN delivers high-performance cooling with minimal environmental impact.

Our scraped surface systems are used in:

  • Recreational snowmaking – including global showcases like the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics, where ICEGEN produced high-quality snow with realistic texture and structure, regardless of ambient temperature.
  • Pipeline cleaning (“ice pigging”) – enabling advanced, non-invasive cleaning of industrial pipes and process lines using formed ice slurries.
  • Water purification – separating minerals, salts, or pollutants through controlled crystallization.
  • Marine and fishing operations – preserving freshness and extending the shelf life of high-value catches with energy-efficient onboard cooling.

Each application benefits from ICEGEN’s low-RPM, high-exchange scraped surface systems—designed for flexibility, mobility, and easy integration into existing operations.

FAQs

1. What is IceGen's core technology?

IceGen specializes in industrial slurry ice generation — producing micro‑ice crystals suspended in water using plate heat exchangers and a rotary scraper. Their systems range from 2 to 120 tons of ice daily and operate at a saturated suction temperature of –11 °C.

2. Why use slurry ice instead of conventional ice?

Slurry ice offers several cooling advantages:
- Faster chilling and more uniform contact with products
- Maintains consistent temperature while absorbing heat
- Gentler (no sharp edges), safe for delicate items
- Can be pumped and recirculated, reducing handling costs

3. What industries benefit from IceGen systems?

Ideal for any industry needing efficient chilling: seafood and fish processing, beverages, liquid foods, and perishable product preservation — especially where gentle and rapid cooling is critical.

4. What are the structural advantages of IceGen equipment?

- Constructed from 316 stainless steel
- Modular plate heat exchanger design — compact footprint
- Simple controls, low refrigerant volume, robust and maintenance‑friendly
