Blast freezers （or blast chillers） are no longer just tools for professional kitchens — they have become strategic products for equipment brands looking to grow their business.
As a manufacturer, Argion designs and produces blast freezers that enable ODM and OEM partners to expand their product portfolios, enter new food industry segments, and serve a wider range of professional customers. With reliable rapid chilling and freezing performance, blast freezers help brands build scalable offerings across pastry, bakery, ice cream, fast food, and catering markets.
What Is a Blast Freezer?
Designed for professional kitchens, a blast freezer is specialized refrigeration equipment that rapidly cools or freezes freshly cooked or raw food, bringing it to safe temperatures in a controlled and hygienic manner.
Unlike conventional freezers that lower temperature gradually, blast freezers use high-velocity circulation of intensely cold air to reduce food temperature in a very short time. This rapid process minimizes the formation of large ice crystals, helping preserve food structure, texture, and overall quality while meeting strict food safety requirements.
Why Blast Freezers Matter Across Food Sectors
Pastry & Bakery
Blast freezers rapidly chill or freeze pastries, creams, and baked goods, preserving texture, aroma, and appearance while reducing moisture loss and extending shelf life.
Pizzeria
In pizzerias, blast freezers stabilize dough and ingredients through rapid freezing, ensuring consistent quality after thawing and improving product repeatability.
Ice Cream & Frozen Desserts
Rapid freezing is essential for smooth texture and product stability. Blast freezers limit ice crystal formation and help maintain premium quality.
Gastronomy, Hotels & Catering
Blast freezers support safe chilling and freezing of prepared dishes and components, improving food safety, flexibility, and operational efficiency.
Butchery & Meat Processing
In meat processing environments, blast freezers preserve meat structure and moisture while reducing freezing damage and supporting hygienic handling.
Fast Food Service
Fast food operations rely on standardized preparation and high throughput. Blast freezers support consistent freezing and safe storage of ingredients and semi-prepared items.
Why Choose Argion Blast Freezers
1. Designed to Support HACCP Compliance
Food safety is integrated into every aspect of the design. By rapidly moving food through the high-risk temperature zone, Argion blast freezers help inhibit bacterial growth while preserving product integrity. The seamless stainless-steel interior and automatic evaporation system create a hygienic, easy-to-clean environment that actively supports HACCP compliance.
- • Chill: +90°C to +3°C in ≤ 90 min
- • Freeze: +90°C to –18°C in ≤ 240 min
2. Core Temperature Probe for Consistent, Repeatable Results
The integrated core temperature probe continuously monitors the internal temperature of the food, ensuring each chilling or freezing cycle stops precisely when the target core temperature is reached. This eliminates guesswork, simplifies operation across different staff skill levels, and helps maintain consistent product quality from batch to batch.
3. Self-Maintaining Design for Reliable Performance
Argion blast freezers are designed to minimize daily maintenance while ensuring long-term reliability. Automatic defrosting prevents ice accumulation and maintains stable cooling performance, while the no-drain evaporation system removes the need for manual water drainage. The stainless-steel interior further enhances hygiene, durability, and ease of cleaning.
4. Wide-Angle Door for Efficient Workflows
A 150° wide-opening door provides full, unobstructed access to the chamber, making it easier to handle large or fully loaded trays. This ergonomic design improves workflow efficiency and enhances operational safety in fast-paced professional environments.
5. Flexible Control Options
An optional 7-inch intuitive touchscreen allows for easy operation, real-time monitoring, and both one-touch and fully customizable programs. This flexibility enables brands to select the control level that best fits their workflow requirements and budget.
6. Scalable Capacity for Growing Product Lines
Available in multiple sizes, Argion blast freezers support different tray capacities and production volumes. This scalability makes Argion blast freezers suitable for brand owners looking to expand or optimize their product lines while maintaining consistent freezing results.
7. One-on-one specialized support
