BLAST CHILLERS MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2023 - 2030)

Blast Chillers Market Size and Trends

The Blast Chillers Market size is estimated to be valued at US$ 245.5 Mn in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 415.5 Mn by 2030, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8% from 2023 to 2030. Blast chillers are refrigeration equipment that is used for rapid cooling of hot food to temperatures that inhibit bacterial growth. It helps maintain food safety and extends shelf-life. The growth in foodservice industry and rising demand for frozen foods are the major factors driving the market.

• Integration of automated controls: Blast chiller equipment is incorporating automated controls and intelligent technologies for added convenience, maximum throughput, and chilled food safety. Automated controls enable pre-programming of chilling cycles and monitoring of food core temperature through advanced sensors. They detect when the food achieves safe temperature and automatically switches to storage chilling, thus saving critical time. Some can even be remotely controlled and monitored via connected apps and software. Integration of automated controls will be a prevailing trend stimulating the market growth.
• Multi-sensing probes for precise monitoring: Multi-sensing food probes allow meticulous monitoring of parameters like core temperature at different points, chilling chamber climate as well as surface temperature of food trays and trolleys. Intelligent blast chillers can wirelessly connect to such smart probes to get real-time data insights and automatically adjust chilling cycle for precision cooling, thereby preventing under or over chilling. Multi-sensing probes enable maintenance of ideal chilled conditions. Their adoption is rising supported by advancing IoT technologies.
