Supporting the Food Industry: nexAir’s Dry Ice Solutions for Safe Shipping

The food industry depends on dry ice to maintain the freshness and quality of food products. As the global market expands, ensuring vegetables and meats stay fresh from their source to supermarket shelves and restaurant kitchens across long distances demands effective and reliable solutions.

nexAir’s dry ice solutions play a vital role in the food industry, supporting applications such as packing, distribution, processing, and sanitation. Dry ice enhances food appeal, ensures safety, and facilitates access to fresh food—even in remote areas.

The Essential Role of Dry Ice in the Food Supply Chain

Dry ice is a solid form of carbon dioxide that has cooling and cleaning capabilities. As such, it is widely used in various industries, including the food industry. Through temperature control, it can extend the shelf-life of fresh and processed products—from lettuce to frozen seafood, preserving their physical appeal and nutritional value.

Let’s take a closer look at the roles this vital substance plays:

Prevents Contaminating During Food Processing 

Blast freezing through nexAir’s dry ice pellets provides rapid cooling to processed food. This prevents bacterial growth and food contamination during meat and poultry preparation. 

Many food processing plants prefer this method over traditional cooling because it minimizes waste and losses.

Provides Optimal Temperature for Transit

Bringing fresh food from their points of origin to points of sale requires certain temperatures during transit. Our dry ice packs meet this need by offering consistently low temperatures. With the right amount of dry ice and suitable packing methods, food stays fresh while oxidation is kept at bay.  

Serves as Valuable Packaging Solutions

nexAir also provides insulated containers for our dry ice products to maximize their efficiency. By extending the life of dry ice, their cooling and preservation benefits are extended during storage and transportation. 

Delivers Impeccable Cleanliness 

Cleanliness should not be compromised, especially when it comes to food. Dry ice inhibits bacterial growth while dry ice blasting can be useful in removing mold and mildew growth in food environments like warehouse floors, shelves, and counters.
