Time:2024-05-28 Views:238
The scorching summer is approaching, and ordinary cold drinks, iced drinks, and so on cannot do without the ice grid. Currently, the most common ice grid materials in the market are silicone and plastic. However, in market research, it was found that as ordinary consumers, they are more willing to choose silicone ice grids. Why is this?

Firstly, the materials that can be used as silicone ice grids are of high quality and have been certified by international food certifications such as FDA and SGS. It is non-toxic and harmless, and can also be customized in various shapes and colors. Beautiful and practical. Elasticity is not easily deformed, and storage is light. It is also easy to clean, does not penetrate, and is not easily dusty. The temperature resistance is also quite good, it can withstand -40 ℃~230 ℃, and can be used in ovens, refrigerators, and microwaves.

And the silicone ice grid is easy to operate, can be easily removed by gently pressing the bottom, easy to peel off, and durable. The silicone ice grid model can also DIY design cakes, bread, mousse, and jelly pudding.

Plastic ice cells, on the other hand, have a similar temperature resistance to silicone, a higher thermal expansion rate, and are also prone to combustion. Easy to deform, even becoming brittle at low temperatures and aging quickly. Moreover, it is relatively difficult to mold the ice cubes after freezing.

The above is why consumers are more willing to choose silicone ice grids.
