BioZone Scientific’s IceZone® is the industry-leading ice machine sanitation system that keeps your ice machine, ice bin, or beverage dispenser clean from slime, mold, yeast, bacteria and other impurities. Ice machines can be very difficult to keep clean, especially in environments with high airborne yeast concentrations such as bars and restaurants so the worse your environment the greater the return.

When it comes to the health of your customers and others who use the ice from your machines is there a price tag?

If you fail a health inspection due to a filthy ice machine what is the downtime cost? What is the cost of bad publicity?

What is IceZone®

IceZone® is a multi-patented Clean-In-Place (CIP) food equipment sanitation system that prevents slime, mold, bacteria, viruses, fungi, and yeast from growing on the surfaces of ice machines and is proven by independent third party test labs to eliminate over 99% of surface micro-contamination.

IceZone® is approved for use on nearly all major commercial ice machines in the field and is certified by UL, NSF, and HACCP. Every commercial ice machine can benefit from installation of IceZone®.

Ice machine contamination is environment dependent. In high yeast and humid environments, for example, ice machines demonstrate accelerated contamination, even within days.

Every commercial ice machine can benefit from installation of IceZone®. IceZone® prevents slime, mold, yeast, and bacteria from accumulating in ice machines, ice bins, and beverage dispensers. IceZone®’s patented PlasmaProtect® system distributes photoplasma throughout the equipment to target areas most vulnerable to neutralize and kill micro-organisms before they can take root. IceZone® performance has been validated by independent third party laboratories to reduce surface bacteria and yeast on ice machine surfaces by over 99%.

BioZone Scientific’s IceZone® ice machine disinfection system meets the highest food service standards and is certified by NSF, UL, CE, and HACCP. IceZone® is a chemical-free clean-in-place system that is approved for use on over 800 commercial ice machines to provide automated equipment cleaning.

IceZone® is widely used by ice machine manufacturers and ice machine owners/operators including equipment leasing and rental companies, hospitals and healthcare facilities, hotels and resorts, school, restaurants and other foodservice facilities.

IceZone® X was selected for the 2014 Kitchen Innovations Award by an independent panel of foodservice industry who’s-whos. Kitchen Innovations Award recipients are selected because they demonstrate a solution to restaurant operator challenges. IceZone® X saves restaurant operators considerable time and money by automating cleaning and preventing ice machine contamination.
