Ensuring freshness and safety in the fish sector

Tecnica del Freddo brings all the know-how it has gained over many years in the food refrigeration sphere to the fish sector, offering systems designed to guarantee the highest standards in terms of quality, hygiene and safety. By its very nature, fish is extremely delicate, and therefore requires constant and precise monitoring of thermal parameters from the moment it is caught.

Thanks to our extensive experience, which includes individual and centralised systems, direct and pumped expansion systems, reciprocating and screw compressors, and the use of synthetic refrigerants and ammonia, the company is able to create reliable and custom solutions. For every company, we are guided by a single mission: to preserve the freshness, structure, and value of the product at every stage of the supply chain.

Refrigeration as a guarantee of quality in the fish sector

In the fish sector, cold storage is an essential factor. Fish and shellfish are subject to very rapid deterioration, and must be kept within very precise temperature ranges to avoid microbiological and organoleptic changes. Refrigeration is therefore more than a mere element of the production system, but the core of the entire process.

Tecnica del Freddo designs chilling, preservation and freezing systems characterised by their high efficiency and uniform environmental control. Careful regulation of temperature, humidity, and ventilation ensures that the product is kept in optimal conditions, reducing weight loss and preserving consistency, flavour and freshness. The result is a safer supply chain and a higher quality final product.

Comprehensive services

From designing positive-temperature cold rooms to tunnel freezers, and from air handling systems to salting solutions, Tecnica del Freddo offers a comprehensive and tailored service to meet all the needs of the fish supply chain.

Maintenance and support: keeping cold under control

In the fish sector, even a minimal temperature fluctuation can irreversibly compromise the quality of the product. Tecnica del Freddo therefore approaches maintenance as an integral part of the service, with preventive support programmes designed to optimise efficiency and safety. Our technicians carry out periodic checks, performance tests and precise adjustments, supported by remote monitoring and remote assistance systems that allow us to detect anomalies in real time.

In case of an urgent situation, our emergency response service is able to quickly intervene on any system, minimising downtime and ensuring that the product always remains in optimal condition.

Our services

Air conditioning for processing rooms

For processing rooms, where products and operators must coexist, we create thermohygrometric controlled air handling systems. Our air distribution systems are designed to avoid annoying drafts and ensure comfort, as well as health, hygiene and safety. The filtration and quality of recirculated and fresh air are fully compliant with food industry regulations.

Positive-temperature cold rooms

Positive-temperature cold rooms are essential for keeping the fish in optimal conditions, from delivery to processing. Specifically sized systems allow us to obtain perfect environmental uniformity and reduced temperature changes, limiting weight loss and preserving the quality of the product.

Tunnel freezers / blast chillers

Fish products intended for long-term storage or pre-cooked products undergo rapid freezing or cooling processes. Ensuring high-speed blast chilling and uniform air circulation throughout the load is absolutely crucial. The tunnels are designed with suitable dimensions to optimise air flow and preserve the organoleptic properties of the product as much as possible.

Frozen product storage rooms

After freezing, the product is stored in dedicated rooms where it is necessary to maintain stable and uniform temperatures, even over long periods. Our refrigeration systems are chosen to reduce energy consumption, which is particularly high at the low temperatures required for this phase.

Salting

The salting phase requires specific climatic conditions, with controlled temperatures and humidity levels. Air movement must be as natural as possible to promote uniform distribution of the salt. For this reason, static ceiling evaporators and wall or convection chimney heating systems are typically used, which guarantee a slow and uniform flow of air, ideal for this process.
