Conveyor Systems for Frozen Foods
Food-Safe and Cold Room Conveyor Systems
A high degree of knowledge is crucial to the success of new conveyor lines and equipment in a manufacturing environment with a temperature range of -40° to 32° F. The water content of frozen foods makes them fragile to transport from high speeds or high temperatures which can cause thawing through friction or processing, damaging the products' integrity.
Keep It Clean
Nercon's Advantage
These conveyors are easily cleanable, made for washdown environments and were designed to gently transport the products with a desired throughput speed, preventing unwanted thawing and maintaining product integrity.
Food-grade components
Enhanced sanitation efficiency
Fast start-up efficiency due to match-marked removable components
Stands up to rigorous sanitation practices (COP) and regular daily hygienic procedures (CIP)

Frequently Asked Questions
How do Nercon conveyors protect frozen food integrity?
Nercon designs its frozen food conveyor systems for gentle handling of fragile items like frozen fruits, vegetables, snacks, and ready-to-eat meals to minimize breakage and waste. Conveyor configurations and belt selections are engineered to prevent unwanted thawing from friction or heat, helping maintain product quality from receiving through packaging.
Are these conveyors suitable for sanitary, cold room food processing and packaging?
Yes, Nercon’s HydroCore® sanitary food packaging conveyors use food-grade components, are built for washdown environments, and withstand both clean-out-of-place and clean-in-place sanitation procedures. Open, hygienic designs with match-marked removable components improve access for cleaning, enhance sanitation efficiency, and help reduce cross-contamination risks in cold rooms.
Can Nercon customize frozen food conveyor systems for my application?
Nercon engineers custom line layouts using ProCore® and HydroCore® platforms to move frozen products to and from freezers and between processing and primary or secondary packaging. Solutions can be tailored for totes, cases, pallets, and a wide variety of frozen products—including ice cream, desserts, entrees, breakfast foods, and frozen fruits and vegetables—while focusing on ergonomics, reduced cold room labor, and maximum throughput.
