Freezer Spacers
WE ARE CURRENTLY NOT USING FREEZER SPACERS TO BLAST FREEZE OUR PRODUCT. WE NEED TO REDUCE OUR FREEZE TIMES, WHAT TYPE WOULD YOU RECOMMEND?
In general any type of freezer spacer will dissipate heat quicker on a block, spread stack or chimney spaced load as long as there is significant air movement. The greater the air flow through each layer the faster the product cools or freezes. In QFR...
We would like to reduce our blast freezing times; will the Maxi Freezer Spacers work?
In most instances we have found that the Maxi Freezer Spacers can be up to 17% efficient depending on your airflow environment. If for example, your freezer environment is “still air” then your efficiency improvement rating will be much less than 17...
We prefer using wood freezer spacers which offers better airflow and are much cheaper than plastic. Why should we consider plastic versus wood?
Wood spacers at one time were half the price of plastic but now this is no longer the case. Plastic freezer spacers are competitive with the price of wood freezer spacers. Wood can be made taller providing good air flow, however, plastic freezer spacers...
We often ship our product (with spacers) to an outside freezer and don’t get the same freezer spacers back. Are the spacers available in other color or ID labels?
Plastic Freezer Spacers consist of 30% regrind material and 70% virgin material. Black is the easiest way to recolor reprocessed material and for this reason plastic freezer spacers normally come in black. To purchase a plastic freezer spacer in a different...
Are Cherry’s Plastic Freezer Spacers compatible with the QFR Zone and Quick Freezing Systems?
Yes, they are compatible. Some freezer spacers work better than others; however, Maxi Freezer Spacers would be the preferred choice for QFRs. As has been recommended before, always test a sample before purchasing a large quantity of freezer spacers...
We ship product between facilities (palletize with spacer at the production plant and remove after freezing in the cold storage facility). The freezer spacers are slippery and shift during transport. How can we control this?
We offer freezer spacers with anti-slip material. It is another plastic molded on top of the freezer spacer. This plastic surface has a higher coefficient of friction than our standard plastic freezer spacers. In addition, we recommend manually (by hand...
Our pallet loads weight more than 1.800 lbs, but far less than 3,600 lbs. How can I determine between the heavy duty freezer spacers and the medium duty freezer spacer?
In making a decision between purchasing a Medium Duty Freezer spacer (1,800 lb capacity) and a Heavy Duty Freezer Spacer (3,600 lb capacity) always remember that a freezer spacer does not get placed between a pallet and the base of the bottom layer of...
What is the difference between the open profile, lattice design, and egg crate style freezer spacers and what applications work best for each? (need more info)
A) Open Profile (injection molded) Plastic Freezer Spacers are designed for tempering or taking frozen product and warming them up. They get brittle in the cold.
B) Lattice Plastic Freezer Spacers (such as SKU#s 2547002 and 2547003) are heavy (15.5...
What are some of the benefits of buying aluminum freezer spacers?
Aluminum freezer spaces are rigid in design and are great conductors of cold, warm, and hot temperatures. They are light weight and very strong. They are effective in permitting air flow to reach the loads that rest on them and they are easy to clean...
