Nikko Co.,Ltd List of Products and Services

The silk ice proposed by Nikko is a slushy ice with the same salinity as seawater, cooled to sub-zero temperatures using sea ice. It is an excellent ice that can simultaneously achieve "prevention of agitation" and "low-temperature storage," which are essential for maintaining the freshness of fish. The continuous silk ice system "sea ice" can generate silk ice within minutes of startup, allowing for immediate freshness preservation right after catch, enabling fish to be landed at peak freshness. This product received the Prime Minister's Award at the 7th Monozukuri Nippon Grand Award. 【Features】 ○ Ice production starts immediately with a switch-on ○ Compact design suitable for installation on vessels ○ Energy-efficient ○ Allows for landing while maintaining the freshness of freshly caught fish ○ Reduces the labor and effort required for ice loading ○ Cost reduction in fuel and other expenses (vessel-mounted type) ○ Discharges 1 to 1.5 tons in about 10 minutes (land-based type) ○ Supplies from the tank via hose (land-based type) ○ Continuous ice production at raw water temperatures up to 28°C 【Silk Ice Features】 ● Extremely fine particle sea water slushy ice ● Very fast cooling speed ● Maintains sub-zero temperatures for a long time ● Does not damage fish bodies ● Reduces bacterial count ● ATP is preserved ● Can be applied to large catches of fish
