scansteel foodtech – Defrosting system

Company scansteel foodtech® offers a series of scanDefrost equipment for the fast and efficient defrosting of pre-chopped or crushed frozen blocks of meat, poultry and bones. These systems allow you to defrost products frozen to -30°C directly from the freezer in minutes, which greatly simplifies production logistics and eliminates the need for long-term storage in defrosting rooms.

The main advantages of scanDefrost:

• No juice loss: The technology ensures defrosting without losing liquid, while maintaining the weight and quality of the product.
• Delicate handling of meat: The method is delicate and does not cause protein denaturation, preserving the natural structure of the meat.
• Color retention: Defrosting does not change the natural color of the product.
• Preservation of binding properties: All the valuable binding properties of the meat remain unchanged, which is important for further processing.

General advantages:

• Easier logistics and production planning: The ability to process food directly from the freezer simplifies production processes.
• Saves time, space, and energy: Rapid defrosting reduces energy and storage costs and optimizes the use of production space.
• Improved product yield: The absence of juice loss and preservation of product quality contribute to an increase in the overall yield of finished products.

The scanDefrost series is available in models with capacities ranging from 2000 to 12000 liters, equipped with a vacuum system and direct steam injection from below, which ensures even and fast defrosting of large volumes of products.

The use of scanDefrost equipment allows food manufacturers to increase the efficiency of defrosting processes while maintaining high quality and safety of the final product.
