Dry Ice for Farming - Pellets and Blocks | Dry Ice 4 Farming

Dry ice for farming from Dry Ice International, a South African manufacturer and distributor of dry ice since 1994. The range covers pellets and round or square blocks. Farmers can stock up on solid carbon dioxide that sublimates at about -78.5 degrees Celsius. It cools without leaving meltwater, which suits produce, meat, dairy products and other farm goods that must stay cold between farm and market.

Key features

Dry ice is available as pellets in sizes from 3 mm to 16 mm, and as round or square blocks. Pellets pack neatly around crates and boxes. Blocks are a compact format for longer cooling periods. Polystyrene containers and cooler boxes are also supplied, so you can pack and store your order properly. How long the cooling lasts depends on the quantity, the insulation and the conditions during use.

How to use

On the farm, dry ice is used for cold transport of produce and animal products, for refrigeration emergencies during power cuts, and for keeping frozen goods cold at markets. Pack it in insulated containers with the goods you want to keep cold. Plan the quantity around the starting temperature of the product, the length of the journey and the weather. Always wear insulated gloves and eye protection. Use it in a ventilated space. Never seal it in an airtight container, and keep it away from children. Do not put it directly into drinks.
