The Deepchill™ Variable-State Ice Difference

No two products have the same preservation requirements. In fact, many products optimally require different types of preservation at various stages of their processing and storage cycle. Deepchill™ Variable-State Ice is as unique and versatile as your preservation needs. The Deepchill™ Variable-State Ice System always delivers the ideal form of preservation for every step of your process. Sunwell applies over 25 years of preservation expertise to create flexible multi-phased systems that allow our customers to easily vary temperature & ice-states (liquid ice, slurry ice, dry ice, etc.) throughout their preservation cycle, dramatically improving preservation results and improving their bottom-lines. 

The perfect Deepchill™ ice crystal is created through Sunwell's unique process of forming tiny crystals within a liquid. These perfect, round crystals have superior flow and cooling properties, making them easy to distribute through piping and over product, allowing them to flow into crevices and provide greater surface contact and faster cooling. Deepchill™ provides the following advantages: 

Adaptable Ice - Crystal size (0.25 mm to 0.5 mm), ice fraction (0% to 100%), temperature (0 to -30 °C), and salinity level (0% and up) are easily adaptable, making Deepchill™ suitable for any application. 

Efficient Cooling - As dry crystals or as slurry ice, the unique properties of the perfect Deepchill™ crystals allow them to provide rapid, even cooling at any desired temperature without causing freezing or freezer burn. 

Superior Protection - Smooth, round crystals do not damage product and prevent skin discoloration, unlike other forms of sharp, jagged ice (flake ice, shell ice, cracked ice, etc.). 

Energy Efficient Production, Storage & Distribution - Deepchill™ is produced in a small, highly efficient crystallizer, then stored in a fully sealed thermos-like storage tank. It is then delivered using energy efficient pumps through an insulated pipe distribution network. No energy-intensive grinding or raking systems are required. 

Automated Delivery - Easy delivery of measured amounts of pumpable ice to multiple points of use, reducing labor (no shoveling) and ice wastage and providing even application and better preservation control. 

Superior Hygiene - Sealed environment means no external contamination. 

Low Maintenance - Very simple design, with low level of corrosion due to the sealed, non-abrasive and automated nature of the system. 

Flexible Modular Design - Allows for space efficient installation, enables scalability of capacity, and requires no building renovations.
