A turnkey cooling system has cut the time it takes to chill a meat marinade by one-third, enabling a soup/sauce manufacturer to significantly increase production. Denver-based Ready Foods, after receiving a large order from a chain of restaurants, needed a solution that would enable it to decrease the length of time it took to cool the marinade from 200°F to 38°F.

An unusual cooling system is helping one cook-and-chill soup and sauce manufacturer cut the time it takes to chill one of its core products by one-third.

The industrial cooling system market will surpass $25 billion by 2025, according to a research report by Global Market Insights Inc. The report cites an increasing demand for reliable, efficient cooling systems coupled with technological advancement. Such demand driving new cooling systems installations to enhance component and manufacturing operations.
