The installation of a load storage unit represents the core component of the HOF CCU CryoBlizzard technology. Since 2019, several central refrigeration systems using this sustainable approach have already been successfully implemented – operated exclusively with air as a refrigerant.

The patent confirms HOF’s technological leadership and emphasizes the innovative strength of this energy-efficient and sustainable solution. As an innovative buffer tank technology, it provides our customers with a unique state-of-the-art system that has already been successfully installed multiple times and will greatly reduce operating costs in freeze drying.

The system incorporates air-cycle cooling machines developed by MIRAI Intex, which are an integral part of the technology. In order to supply multiple users via a centralized refrigeration system, the patented load storage unit is used – enabling the reliable, consistent and efficient supply of different temperature levels.

Greater efficiency for ambitious processes

The HOF CryoBlizzard technology stands out not only for its sustainability and long-term viability but also for its significantly improved energy efficiency.
The result: reduced operating costs, lower environmental impact – and maximum performance for demanding production environments.

This innovative, energy-efficient and sustainable technology provides our customers with a truly state-of-the-art solution that significantly reduces the operational costs of freeze-drying.

“The patent not only confirms the technological edge of our solution, but also its sustainable contribution to energy efficiency.”
