Description
The versatile ice par excellence: From Mojitos to Fishmongers’ Displays.
This professional range produces crushed ice (also called “Flake Ice”) ideal for two major uses in catering: presentation (buffets, fish displays) and mixology (cocktails). Unlike cube ice, this ice perfectly molds to the shape of glasses or fresh products for immediate and homogeneous contact cooling.
How to size your machine?
The Expert’s Advice: The choice of cooling (Air vs. Water)
As with cube ice machines, this choice is crucial depending on your location:
• AIR cooling: Ideal for installation under a well-ventilated counter or in a temperate room. It is the most economical choice.
• WATER cooling: Essential for hot kitchens, confined back-bars or regions subject to high heat. It guarantees constant performance even when it’s 35°C in the room.
Production & Storage Capacity
From 30kg for a small cocktail bar to 130kg for a fishmonger or a very high-volume beverage establishment, size your production according to your peak activity. Don’t forget to check the storage capacity (the reserve bin) which determines your true immediate autonomy during a “rush”.

Restaurant La Maree –
Bon produit. Machine conforme. La réserve de 10kg est un peu juste pour nos services du weekend, Mays elle produit vite. Bon rapport qualité-prix.
Paul V. (Traiteur) –
Matériel pro. Utilisée pour les buffets et les bars à cocktails. Facile à transporter et à installer. Robuste.
Le Grand Café –
Très bon débit. Parfait pour notre bar, même les soirs de match. Le bac de 10kg tient bien.
Poissonnerie L. –
Parfaite pour l’étal. Utilisée pour notre étal de fruits de mer. Le débit de 50kg est juste ce qu’il nous fallait pour tenir la journée.
Cocktail Bar ‘Le Shaker’ –
Indispensable pour les Mojitos ! Enfin une machine qui tient le débit ! La glace pilée est de bonne taille, pas trop fine. Nos barmans sont ravis.
