Introduction to Individual Quick Freezing (IQF)
Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) is an advanced cryogenic technology that rapidly freezes food items individually, preventing ice crystal formation and preserving texture, flavor, and nutritional integrity. Unlike bulk freezing methods, IQF ensures each unit (e.g., berry, shrimp, or vegetable slice) remains separate, achieving core temperatures of -18°C within 3–20 minutes depending on product geometry.
