True Fluidization with JBT´s Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) Freezers! JBT’s IQF Freezers has the pioneering technology in the field of individual freezing for vegetables, soft fruits, fish, and other high-value IQF products, which remains at the forefront of the industry, thanks to its versatility and ability to deliver true fluidization. Finding new ways of making freezing technology more economical has always been a key aim for JBT. Trust JBT to provide you with the most effective and flexible IQF freezers available.
Economic and user-friendly cooling solutions designed for efficiently, reliably, and hygienically individual quick freezing (IQF) a wide assortment of food products.
We pioneered “Individual Quick Freezing” technology (IQF), installing the world’s first IQF freezer on a process line in Sweden back in 1962. Since then, millions of tons of fresh food products have been successfully and profitably frozen on our Frigoscandia FLoFREEZE fluidized bed linear freezers. Our Frigoscandia FLoFREEZE provides true fluidization, using a patented air flow system that separates and freezes the most delicate products, while simultaneously fulfilling the industry’s toughest requirements for hygiene, economy and user-friendly operation.
Features & Benefits
IQF Track – offers stable, dual zone fluidization, with two independent tracks and two separate pressure chambers
IQF Tray – delivers multi-zone freezing capability using a stainless steel IQF tray which is perfect for products that require extra hygiene precautions and high volume products like peas and corn kernels
Pulsation system – modulates air pressure and frequency over the product bed that gently separates delicate products at the crust freezing stage
Agitation – back and forth agitation insures proper IQF at the crust freezing stage and increases throughput
Air-bypass – fine tune airflow through the product bed to ensure gentle optimized fluidization regardless of product shape, size, and weight.
Details
Designed specifically for high quality IQF freezing of raw fruits and vegetables
Capacities from 1 metric ton (2,200 lbs.) to 17,500 metric tons (38,500 lbs.) per hour based on frozen peas
Airflow technology that delivers quality and profit! Our impingement technology freezers uses a revolutionary solution with thousands of high-velocity air jets that blast away the boundary layer of air that holds heat around the product. The product is frozen instantly, with maintained quality and minimized dehydration. Impingement freezing is best suited for products with a high surface to mass ratio, for instance, thin products like burgers, where the heat can quickly be removed from the surface. Taste, mouthfeel, and product quality are assured.
We launched impingement freezing in the 1990’s because food processors were looking for a cost-effective alternative to cryogenic freezing of hamburger patties. Since then we […]

We launched impingement freezing in the 1990’s because food processors were looking for a cost-effective alternative to cryogenic freezing of hamburger patties. Since then we have found numerous applications for this method of fast freezing. Our impingement freezing technology utilizes thousands of high velocity jets of air directed at the top and bottom surfaces of the product. This impinging action literally blasts away the boundary layer of air resulting in extremely fast freezing times which leads to higher quality product, minimal dehydration losses, and maximum yield at a fraction of the cost of cryogenic systems.

Our Frigoscandia FPF Flat Products Freezer was engineered to help hamburger patty producers improve profits by cutting freezing costs in half while maintaining quality and growth objectives. Using a process we call impingement freezing, our Frigoscandia Flat Products Freezer is a linear, mechanical style freezer that utilizes thousands of high velocity jets of air directed at the top and bottom of the product. This impinging action blasts away the boundary layer of air resulting in extremely fast freezing at a fraction of the cost of cryogenic tunnels.
Features & Benefits
Modular design from 2 to 8 pre-manufactured modules to meet a wide range of production needs.
Module length 13.55 ft. – (Minimum impingement zone of 27.1 ft. to maximum of 108.1 ft.)

We designed our patented Frigoscandia SuperCONTACT Contact Crust Freezer for quick-freezing the bottom surface of a wide range of delicate, wet, shape-sensitive, or sticky products […]
We designed our patented Frigoscandia SuperCONTACT Contact Crust Freezer for quick-freezing the bottom surface of a wide range of delicate, wet, shape-sensitive, or sticky products prior to final full freezing. We use an ingenious method of mechanical refrigeration freezing and product handling. We convey the products on a thin polyethylene film running over a refrigerated plate. The bottom of the product gets a stabilizing frozen crust, one millimeter deep, which allows the product to be transported onto a regular freezer belt with no mesh marks or sticking problems.
Features & Benefits
Quality – we maintain product shape and appearance without sticking, deformation, belt marks and minimal drip loss.
Speed – crust freezing reduces dwell time in the final freezing step boosting overall line capacity
Hygiene – products touch only the polyethylene film which is rolled up for disposal. This ensures product hygiene and improves hygiene in the final freezer
Yield – since moisture on the product underside is sealed to the product process drip losses are almost 0%
Cost Efficient – increased line capacity, reduces product weight loss, rejects and energy costs
Details
Designed specifically for crust freezing the bottom of a variety of protein and bakery items prior to the full freezing step to improve material handling and overall quality
