Abstract
PurFoods estimates they will use two million gel-bags this year in their packaged meal delivery boxes. Currently, cycle time to freeze gel-bags is about 24 hours. PurFoods would like to reduce this time by at least 25%, opening up valuable inventory space and providing flexibility in meeting market demands.
