Vertical plate freezers are ideal for freezing large volumes of food and liquids very quickly to sustain the food quality and ensure food safety.

The vertical plate freezers are designed to block freeze food without or with little pre-handling directly on site. It is suitable for products such as fish, shellfish, meat and poultry, vegetables, fruits, liquids, by-products, and offal for pet food.

The freezing process is based on double contact freezing, and the method is 30% faster than the traditional blast freezing solutions. Our freezers are designed for the fast, economical freezing of large quantities while ensuring high product quality and the preservation of taste, texture, and nutritional value. With more than 10,000 installations worldwide, our plate freezing solutions are the preferred and trusted solutions across the market.

Depending on your needs, our vertical plate freezers can freeze, cool, heat, and heat exchange your products. We have helped customers handle food in various ways depending on the cooling system. From cooling at 3°C to pasteurization at 100°C.

We offer four series of freezers with characteristic functionalities. Each freezer is specially designed to fit your capacity in terms of space on the production site as well as the preferred batch weight or block size.

vertical freezer variants

Large capacity and cleaning-friendly design

The vertical plate freezers in the V3-7 series feature extra strong, hot-dip galvanized frames or frames in stainless steel, forks covered with PEHD or aluminum, and extruded aluminum plates. The plate freezers also include flexible PTFE hoses with stainless steel armoring that are individually pressure-tested.

The V3-7 series uses a single pass of refrigerant in the plates. This provides the best heat transfer possible – especially compared to other plate freezers on the market that use double pass.

V3-7 plate freezers are relevant for a number of industries. They can be used in the meat and poultry industry to thermally treat quality meat, MDM, or by-products, or in the fish and seafood industry for block freezing various products such as salmon, shrimps, and much more.

Controlled core temperature

It is possible to include core point technology in your plate freezer. It is mounted inside the freezer to measure the core temperature of the product blocks. This allows you to temperature control and stop the freezing process at the accurate time rather than relying on an estimate that is likely to extend the freezing time. Not only does it ensure energy efficiency and increase your freezing capacity, but it is also timesaving and heightens food safety even further. The technology also enables enhanced documentation of the freezing process for each product.
