ARTLOCK Freezing Technology
Pure in flavor, aroma, and texture
— the essence of the ocean, captured at its peak.
To deliver the ocean’s bounty in its peak state, Maruhira Kawamura Suisan has adopted the Artlock Freezer—the latest in rapid-freezing technology.
This next-generation system preserves both pristine freshness and depth of flavor, capturing each ingredient at its moment of perfection to ensure it reaches you with just-caught quality.
Why Culinary Professionals Choose
the Artlock Freezer?
01. Exceptional Flavor that Surpasses Freshness
In a comparative study of sea bream, 93.3% of participants (28 out of 30) reported "no discernible difference" in texture compared to fresh fish. Even after thawing, the firm, snap-fresh texture is perfectly restored. Remarkably, results show that our process can actually increase depth of flavor and umami by more than 25% compared to raw, unfrozen seafood.
02. Preserving the Natural Integrity of Every Ingredient
Gentle, high-speed airflow envelops the seafood to achieve rapid cooling. Unlike conventional freezers that use harsh, direct blasts, our system minimizes stress on the ingredients to virtually eliminate the risks of drying, oxidation, and discoloration.
03. Unwavering Consistency in Quality
Our "AI Smart Freeze" technology automatically adjusts settings based on the specific ingredient and the season. Combined with specialized fan-control technology, this eliminates uneven freezing to ensure uniform quality across every cut. By delivering such reliable consistency, we help streamline and stabilize your kitchen operations.
