The applications of Berg Shell Ice Machines in the food and beverage industry are manifold. They can be used to preserve perishable items like produce, meat, poultry, and seafood, as well as water ingredient in bread-making. Additionally, these machines are also capable of producing blood plasma and frozen juices. The versatility of being able to choose ice thickness can be very important for some operators, as can the choice of using softer, colder saltwater ice as opposed to freshwater ice. By simply adjusting settings on the touchscreen, the operator has full control of the thickness of the ice to suit the application’s requirements.   

In 2022, Berg provided a shell ice making solution for Comeau's Sea Foods Inc., a seafood supplier, to replace the existing machine at their plant which supplies 10 US tons of seawater ice per day. The solution included one 10TR Shell Ice Maker Machine with a water-cooled condenser charged with R-449A (Opteon XP40) refrigerant and seawater, one semi-hermetic compressor, one evaporator, and an Electrical & Control Panel. The machine is routinely factory tested underload to verify functionality, control logic, wiring, etc. All safety controls are factory set and checked for operation to ensure long-lasting trouble-free operation.
