FUZHOU, China — Thermojinn, a leading provider of industrial ice-making and concrete cooling solutions, today announced the successful export of a 40-ton automatic ice storage system to Saudi Arabia, where it will be deployed in a major concrete cooling project.
As Saudi Arabia accelerates its ambitious infrastructure development under Vision 2030—including mega-projects such as NEOM, the Red Sea Project, and numerous transportation and energy facilities—the demand for reliable concrete cooling technologies has surged dramatically. In the kingdom‘s extreme desert climate, where summer temperatures regularly exceed 50°C, proper temperature control during concrete pouring and curing is not merely a matter of quality, but of structural integrity and safety.
The Challenge of Concrete Cooling in High-Temperature Environments
Concrete generates significant heat during the cement hydration process. When ambient temperatures are high, the combination of hydration heat and external heat can cause excessive internal temperatures, leading to thermal cracking, reduced durability, and compromised structural performance. In mass concrete applications—such as dam foundations, bridge piers, and large industrial slabs—these risks are amplified.
To address these challenges, one of the most effective methods is to incorporate ice directly into the concrete mix during batching, which rapidly lowers the concrete‘s placement temperature and ensures consistent quality even under extreme conditions.
Advanced Ice Storage Technology: A Breakthrough Solution
The 40-ton automatic ice storage system exported by Thermojinn represents a significant advancement in concrete cooling technology. The system automatically stores and dispenses ice on demand, ensuring a continuous and reliable ice supply for batching operations. Key features of the system include:
● High-capacity ice storage capable of storing up to 40 tonnes of ice, supporting large-scale, continuous concrete production.
● Automatic ice delivery that precisely discharges ice into the concrete mixer, enabling accurate temperature control while reducing manual labor and waste.
● Advanced thermal insulation that maintains ice quality even in high ambient temperatures, preventing premature melting and ensuring consistent cooling performance.
● Durable construction designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including dust, sand, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
This ice storage system will be integrated into a concrete batching plant serving a major infrastructure project in Saudi Arabia, enabling the facility to produce temperature-controlled concrete reliably throughout the year.
Thermojinn: A Trusted Partner in Concrete Cooling
Thermojinn has established itself as a reliable manufacturer of industrial ice-making equipment, with a product portfolio that includes flake ice machines, tube ice machines, block ice machines, and integrated concrete cooling systems. The company‘s systems are deployed across multiple industries, including construction, food processing, chemical engineering, and fisheries.
“We are honored to contribute our ice storage technology to Saudi Arabia’s infrastructure development,” said a company spokesperson. “Our equipment is engineered to deliver consistent, reliable performance in challenging environments. This project demonstrates the capability of Chinese manufacturing to support the world‘s most demanding construction projects.”
Quality and Performance Under Extreme Conditions
For concrete cooling applications, the type and quality of ice used are critical to success. While flake ice has traditionally been used for concrete cooling due to its rapid melting characteristics,automatic ice storage systems offer distinct advantages for large-scale projects:
Consistent temperature control — Precisely metered ice addition ensures batch-to-batch consistency and predictable concrete performance.
Reduced labor costs — Fully automated storage and discharge eliminates manual ice handling.
Improved efficiency — On-demand ice availability prevents production delays waiting for ice delivery.
Waste reduction — Advanced thermal insulation prevents excessive melting, ensuring that every kilogram of ice contributes to cooling.
Industry case studies have demonstrated that for large-volume concrete placements, automated ice storage and delivery systems are increasingly becoming the preferred solution. By ensuring continuous ice availability and precise delivery to the mixer, these systems support uninterrupted high-volume concrete production — a critical advantage for large-scale projects on tight schedules.
