R43 -- Ice Manufacture (I-P)

Most commercial ice production is done with ice makers that produce three basic types of fragmentary ice (flake, tubular, and plate), which vary according to the type and size required for a particular application. Among the many applications for manufactured ice are processing (fish, meat, poultry, dairy, produce, and hydrocooling). storage and transportation (fish, meat, poultry, produce, and dairy products), manufacturing (bakery products, sausage and hot dog products, chemicals and pharmaceuticals, and concrete mixing and curing), and others (retail consumer ice and off-peak thermal storage).
