As a fishing power in Southeast Asia, the Philippines' fishery output exceeded 5 million tons in 2024, and seafood exports reached US$1.2 billion. At the same time, the cold chain logistics market continues to expand at an annual rate of 12%; the number of chain catering brands has increased by an average of 15% per year, and the recovery of the tourism industry has also greatly increased the demand for edible ice in hotels and resorts.
According to industry forecasts, the scale of the Philippine edible ice market will exceed US$300 million from 2026 to 2031, of which the proportion of industrial-grade ice-making equipment will increase to 60%. Among all types of ice-making equipment, the tube ice machine has become the core production equipment of local edible ice factories due to its outstanding advantages such as high transparency, strong cooling efficiency, and wide application scenarios.
he export value of seafood in the Philippines has increased significantly, from US$800 million in 2020 to US$1.4 billion in 2025. Among them, high-value seafood such as fish, shrimp and crabs account for more than 60%.
In terms of seafood preservation, the traditional block ice is easy to scratch the body of the fish, and the flake ice melts quickly. Tube ice has become the first choice for seafood preservation due to its own advantages.
The edible ice tube machine uses reverse osmosis water purification technology, and the impurity content of the ice cubes produced is less than 0.01%, which can avoid contaminating the fish. Moreover, the tube ice with a diameter of 22 to 35 mm can fill the gaps in the fish box, reduce the damage to seafood caused by bumps during transportation, and extend the preservation time to 48 hours.
In recent years, the chain rate of the Philippine catering industry has increased from 45% in 2020 to 65% in 2025, and the number of high-end bars, boutique cafes and theme restaurants has increased by an average of 18% per year. These scenarios place higher demands on ice transparency, cooling efficiency and shape customization.
Tube ice can reduce light refraction, enhance the visual beauty of beverages, and extend the cooling time to 1.5 times that of traditional cube ice. In addition, the hollow cylindrical tube ice design has unique advantages: a larger contact area with the beverage, which increases the cooling speed by 30% and can quickly reduce the temperature of the beverage; at the same time, the amount of water produced after melting is small, which can minimize the impact on the original flavor and concentration of the beverage and ensure a stable taste.
Mindanao is the main agricultural production area in the Philippines, with a fruit and vegetable cold chain coverage rate of less than 40%. Small farms are in urgent need of low-cost, easy-to-carry ice-making equipment. The integrated tube ice machine achieves "plug and play" through modular design:
The integrated ice ice machine integrates a compressor, evaporator and ice storage bin, produces 2-30 tons of tube ice per day, and is suitable for cold chain use in remote areas.
Tube ice machine is not only an inevitable choice to meet the current market demand for ice cubes, but also a key step in laying out the dividends of the cold chain industry in the next ten years. Icemedal Refrigeration is helping the Philippine cold chain industry move towards the high end of the global value chain with technological innovation and localized services.
