Flaker technology is taking on a new twist with an ice machine that produces both flakes and a variation on flakes called “chiplets.”
Flaked ice can be described as small, hard bits of ice. Chiplets are larger, irregular shapes of compacted flake ice measuring 1/4 by 1/4 by 1/4 in.
Applications are primarily supermarket display cases for extending the life of and enhancing the appearance of meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, and drinks.
