Free-flowing, individually frozen
IQF Whole Kernel Sweet Corn
Kernels are the format that gets used, not admired. They go into a mix, a sauce, a ready meal, a salad bar — which means the only questions that matter are…
IQF quick-frozen
The same corn, available in February
Most complaints about frozen sweet corn are complaints about slow freezing: kernels that thaw limp, bleed water into a sauce, and taste flat. That is a physics problem, not a variety problem — and it is solved at the freezer, not on the spec sheet.
Corn destined for this category is flash-frozen within hours of harvest at −35 to −40°C. Freezing that fast produces ice crystals under 100 microns spread evenly through the tissue, so cell walls stay intact and the thawed kernel keeps its snap, colour and juice. Three cuts cover most downstream uses: free-flowing whole kernels, round cob sections, and mini-cobs cut to length.
Frozen within hours of picking
The freezer captures field sugar before it converts. This is only possible because harvest and processing sit on the same operation.
Free-flowing, portion-friendly
Individually frozen pieces do not clump into a block, so your line or kitchen draws the exact weight it needs and returns the rest to −18°C.
Year-round programme supply
Held at −18°C for up to 12 months frozen, IQF removes the seasonality problem from your supply plan without switching origin mid-year.
