How It Works
Prime Fresh Flexi preserves your food in a soft frozen state to lock in the maximum amount of flavour and nutrients.
Soft Freezing
Soft freezing, at approximately -3°C, ensures the water inside the food doesn’t expand and cause cell damage.
Prevents Fat Oxidation
Soft freezing stops the fat in food from oxidising to maintain optimal freshness and taste.
Why Is -3°C Optimal For Maintaining Freshness?
Not Ideal (-18°C)
Food is hard and difficult to cut, while flavour is lost due to cell damage.
Ideal Temperature (-3°C)
Food is easy to cut without defrosting. Freshness and flavour can be retained for 7 days*¹.
Not Ideal (4°C)
Food is too soft to cut neatly and only stays fresh for a few days.
-3°C soft freezing keeps ingredients fresh so you can prepare mouthwatering dishes.
Meat and fish remain fresh and flavourful for up to a week.
Soft freezing protects ingredients from cell damage and drip for better flavour.
Ingredients stored with Prime Fresh don’t require defrosting and can be seasoned quickly.
Retains Freshness for Fish
Soft freezing prevents seeping of blood for long-lasting freshness.
Retains Freshness for Meat
Nutrients and flavours are locked in with no visible drip or colour change.
Preserves Freshness Longer Compared to Chilled
Less oxidation means soft frozen food stays fresh for longer.
Prevents Cell Damage
Less cell damage helps food stay fresh without losing flavour or nutrients.
Stops Drip
Soft freezing prevents drip to retain flavour.
Retains Essential Nutrients
Nutrients stay locked in food since no defrosting is required.
