STAGE 01
Catch & Transport Preservation
The Golden 2 Hours
Once fish are hauled out of water, enzymes and bacteria start spoiling them immediately.
Ice immersion within 2 hours is critical to lay a solid foundation for freshness.
CBFI delivers a stable ice supply with ice at -8~0°C,
quickly lowering fish body temperature to secure the first line of freshness.
STAGE 02
Sorting & Water Bath Cooling
A Race for Freshness
Ice blocks seamlessly transfer to fish transport vehicles as prime fresh fish arrive at the factory.
Fish are placed into low-temperature ice water pools at 0~4°C to induce dormancy.Water bath cooling inhibits enzyme activity and bacterial reproduction.
Don't let temperature spoilage eat into your profits!
At this stage,
the same fish faces vastly different
commercial fates.
Quality optimisation enables fish products
to travel farther, command higher premiums and generate greater profits.
STAGE 03
Live Fish Slaughter
Uninterrupted Cold Chain
Catching is merely the starting point; processing amplifies profitability.
Bleeding → scaling → gill removal → evisceration → blood rinsing.
All procedures take place in a low-temperature processing workshop maintained at 8~10°C.
Continuous low-temperature operation prevents temperature rebound and deterioration.
Why such stringent standards?
At ambient temperature, bacteria reproduce every 20 minutes.Below 10°C, bacterial reproduction slows sharply by 90%.
STAGE 04
Fish Fillet Processing
Profit Booster
Whole fish, fish steaks and fillets are sorted by specification.After slaughter, products are rapidly chilled with -8°C flake ice,
forming an ice coating on fish to avoid oxidation and discolouration.Every reduction in product loss translates to higher net profit.
STAGE 05
Ultra-Rapid Freezing
Lock in Premium Fish Quality
Freezing at -35°C preserves not just freshness, but also your pricing power.Fish flesh swiftly passes through the maximum ice crystal formation zone.Micro-sized ice crystals retain the original flavour of fish to the greatest extent.Based on your products, output and workshop layout,CBFI designs the most suitable quick-freezing solutions tailored for you.
STAGE 06
Glazing & Refreezing
The Art of Ice Armour
Tender seafood destined for long-distance export is prone to weight loss and oxidation.
Ice glazing solves this challenge.
With a glazing ratio of 15–18%, an ice armour forms over aquatic products,tackling challenges in the final leg of fresh food delivery.Quality remains consistent even amid temperature fluctuations.
STAGE 07
Multi-Temperature Zone Warehousing
Customised Storage Conditions
Temperature fluctuations are the biggest enemy of frozen goods.Every 5°C fluctuation in warehouse temperature doubles flesh weight loss and fat oxidation rates.CBFI cold rooms deliver precise temperature control, assigning proper storage for all frozen products:
0–4°C Chilled Storage: Fresh iced fish / live fish
-18°C Frozen Storage: Quick-frozen whole fish / fillets / fish balls / prepared meals
-55°C Ultra-Low Temperature Storage: Premium fish roe / milt / deep-sea fish
STAGE 08
Cold Chain & Supermarket Retail
No Compromises in the Final Mile
Seamless connection between low-temperature cold storage, constant-temperature transfer areas and refrigerated trucks,ensures stable temperature control throughout the chain.
After all, a few degrees of temperature difference can lead to vastly different selling prices.CBFI wholeheartedly safeguards your business.
Attractive, slow-melting edible tube ice and flake ice,provide reliable temperature support for aquatic products in supermarkets and high-end buffets,
bringing delicious seafood straight to dining tables!
