In 2024, we installed a flake ice system for Europe’s largest fishing port in Peterhead, Scotland. With annual fish landings valued at over \u00a3230 million, the necessity of ice for maintaining fish quality the port’s outdated ice plants could no longer cope with the ice demand. The provision of the new flake ice plant will ensure the future viability of the local fishery and the fishing industry in general. We at KTI were able to convince the Peterhead Port Authority with our unique expertise in the manufacture of systems for ice production, ice storage, ice weighing and ice transportation. Attention was also paid to the use of the highest quality components and materials during the engineering phase. The result: a flake ice plant that far exceeds all industry standards.<\/p>

Our state-of-the-art installation includes a plant that produces 75 tons of flake ice per day and an ice store with a storage capacity of 100 tons, which is equipped with a rake system for fully automatic operation. The use of high-quality stainless steel is a matter of course in order to meet hygiene standards as well as the requirements for installation directly on the quay wall. For sustainable and “green” operation, Peterhead Port Authority has opted for ammonia (R717) as the refrigerant. As a special feature, it should be mentioned that the system is recooled using the seawater that is already present. By choosing the refrigerant and the seawater cooling, our engineers created a highly efficient and sustainable solution that sets new standards. To ensure longevity despite the use of seawater, titanium was chosen as the metal for the components, which in turn emphasizes the special nature of the system. The port itself has installed a 150 kWp photovoltaic system on the roof of the adjacent fish market. We were also able to supply the necessary space for switchgear and equipment.

The commissioning of the new ice plant will make supplying the fishing boats and the nearby fish market much easier and more efficient. The boats can load ice onto their vessels from the water. A new solution was developed for this purpose, which enables the ice conveyor unit to be swivelled, raised and lowered fully automatically. This ensures that the fish is optimally cooled immediately after being caught and thus reaches customers at the fish market in top quality. With the purchase of the KTI flake ice systems, the port of Peterhead remains a central hub for the fishing industry in the region, ensuring the highest standards in fish processing through the use of state-of-the-art refrigeration technology.<\/p>
