How to improve product quality and workflow in a gelato laboratory with refrigerated cabinets, blast chillers, and blast chilling tables.
Choosing the right refrigeration equipment for a gelato laboratory is essential to ensuring product quality, food safety, and optimizing production and storage processes. Refrigerated cabinets, blast chillers, and blast chilling tables are true technological partners that support gelato artisans in their mission to create excellent products while ensuring energy efficiency and sustainability.
Refrigerated Cabinets: Guardians of Freshness and Efficiency
Refrigerated cabinets are designed to store raw materials and finished products under optimal conditions. Their sturdy structure, made with high-quality materials, ensures excellent thermal insulation, reducing energy waste. The uniform temperature distribution guarantees that gelato, semifreddi, and bases remain intact, preserving their organoleptic properties. The use of modern refrigeration equipment in a gelato laboratory provides the assurance of constant temperature monitoring.
ILSA’s refrigerated cabinets are specifically designed to preserve delicate products like gelato and to accommodate standard-size trays. Their ventilation system ensures optimal cold air distribution inside the chamber. With an 85 mm insulating coating, they significantly reduce thermal dispersion, leading to lower energy consumption.

Blast Chillers: The Secret to Impeccable Gelato
A blast chiller is essential for ensuring food safety and high-quality gelato with a creamy and uniform texture. Thanks to rapid and controlled cooling, it prevents the formation of large ice crystals that can make the product feel grainy and preserves the air incorporated during churning.
These refrigeration units are also highly useful for cooling bases and ingredients, such as fruit, used in artisanal gelato production, ensuring optimal preservation and prolonged freshness.
ILSA’s blast chillers speed up production thanks to their hard-chilling cycles. They feature an internal air circulation system that cools the product evenly and delicately. Their temperature range spans from +90°C to -18°C.

Blast Chilling Tables: The Practicality of a Two-in-One Solution
These refrigeration units offer a space-saving solution by combining the convenience of a refrigerated work surface with the performance of a blast chiller, integrated into the lower compartment. Blast chilling tables provide excellent temperature control and seamlessly integrate into production workflows, enabling continuous operations while performing multiple tasks in the same space.
ILSA products feature easily removable grids to accommodate GN 1/1 containers and 60×40 trays. They are equipped with a core probe as standard for ideal temperature management and a frontal air circulation system within the technical compartment to ensure uniform airflow distribution.
