Cloudy and Britton IQF Tunnels freeze foods quickly, individually and economically. We design each tunnel to solve specific problems of frozen food processors. Strategic placement of freezer coils and fans reduces shutdowns caused by food particles in the refrigeration coils. Food that falls through the mesh conveyor belt drops past the fan outlet and into a stainless steel cleanup area where it cannot reach the coils. As a result Cloudy and Britton IQF Tunnels operate longer and more efficiently.

Cloudy and Britton's unique modular design of Cloudy and Britton's IQF Tunnels allow fast upgrades of existing systems to reduce production downtime. Our tunnels can be designed to sequentially defrost one section at a time, allowing the tunnel to operate continuously for up to 24 hours a day.

One major design advantage is the fans that circulate freezing air are located above the coils and draw frost-free refrigerated air, reducing the likelihood of ice forming on the fan blades. Air flow can be adjusted to provide an even air flow through the mesh conveyor belt, resulting in even freezing and consistent separation of food product.

Cloudy and Britton IQF Tunnels are safe and quiet. Refrigerated air flows through the belt and down both sides of the enclosed tunnel, returning to the refrigeration coil at a constant low velocity. The fans and motors are entirely inside the tunnel, eliminating the safety hazard of exposed fans.
