Many businesses we meet with have knowledge gaps when it comes to the blast process and what they want to achieve, which is clear from having sat down and asked the right questions to find the most suitable solution for them. Following decades of supplying blast freezer and blast chiller units to satisfied customers, we understand airflow, the effects of packaging, loading, how to avoid freezer burn, moisture on film, the importance of cycle times, process flow for productivity, crust freezing, and controlled freezing for slicing & dicing and much more.

Our walk-in freezers are only supplied following a heat load calculation; having considered the product type, volume, temperature on entry, required cycle time and temperature required.

Our key aim is to understand exactly what you want to ensure you’re left with the perfect solution which is why DGTCS actively encourages product trials.

Product Trials

Product trials are typically conducted at Sutton-in-Ashfield where we have the selected blast unit ready and running at the required temperature for a pre-agreed date and time.

The customer will arrange for their product to be delivered to DGTCS in the same manner and configuration as they intend to present the product at their premises (i.e. same packaging and racking or pallets to be used). A member of the Technical Team will be present at the time of the test and full details and data will be presented to the customer post-trial.

Our blast chillers and blast freezers incorporate the latest technology and are supplied with;
