The Basic Technology
The combination powder used in TEKNO-ICE® have the unique ability to absorb many times their own weight of water. On absorption of aqueous fluids the powder forms an expanded gel which continues to hold the absorbed fluids, thus preventing further contact of bio-fluids with the product. The fabric is a non-woven fabric polyester. It does not adhere to food products even after defrosting and was selected after considerable research because of its inherent properties which made it suitable for manufacturing as we as having superior strength and retention characteristics. It is the combination of powder and non-woven fabric that produced the technology of the TEKNO-ICE® Flexible Ice Sheets/ Pads.
