Cryogenic cooling and freezing are fast cooling and freezing processes which are often used in various food-related sectors such as bakery, confectionery, meat and seafood. Cryogenic cooling and freezing often use carbon dioxide.

Advantages of cryogenic cooling and freezing with CO₂

The main advantages of cryogenic cooling and freezing with CO₂ are:

• Faster than conventional systems, increased production capacity
• Better preservation of nutrients and aromas
• Better conservation of the natural food quality, taste, colour and product form
