Why attend?

When compared to water ice and gel packs, dry ice offers a sustainable cooling solution at -78.5°C, providing three times the refrigeration power. As it undergoes sublimation from solid to gas during energy transfer, it leaves behind no water or residue, eliminating the need for reverse logistics. However, its widespread use in the food processing, food transportation, and life sciences cold chain is not solely due to these factors. Dry ice also brings significant enhancements to product quality and safety, product shelf life, transportation costs, and carbon footprint reduction.
