What is hollow ice?
Hollow ice cube maker machines produce crystal clear ice cubes with a great appearance and low weight. Hollow cubes have a larger surface area than other types of ice, which leads to faster cooling and easier management in many situations. Hollow ice is ideal for under or over-counter applications, and it's perfect for high-volume venues or facilities with diverse ice requirements. Hollow ice is the best general-purpose option for many commercial and industrial use cases.
Commercial ice types and applications
Commercial ice making differs considerably between applications and environments, which is why we offer such a wide range of ice making products. While some businesses need solid cubes, others require hollow cubes or ice flakes. When you're purchasing a new modular or self-contained ice maker, it's important to understand the differences between ice making technologies and how they influence capability and performance on the ground.
While it's all frozen water, different ice types and sizes have very different commercial advantages. Hollow ice has numerous applications, especially in the realm of food services. It's ideal for cooling drinks quickly, which helps to promote efficient consumption rates and customer flow. The hollow shape also makes it easier to crush, which is perfect when making cocktails and other beverages. Last but not least, the crystal clear appearance of hollow ice looks great, especially in gourmet drinks and some desserts.
