Peak demand
Cold beverages sell first.
Rapid beverage cooling for hot climate retail
Warm can.
Cold in 30 seconds.
CryoBev develops low cost rapid cooling technologies for beverage outlets. Our liquid contact prototype cools a sealed aluminium can in 30 seconds, helping convert warm inventory into cold availability when demand peaks.
Prototype result under defined test conditions. Performance depends on can size, starting temperature, target temperature, coolant temperature and flow conditions.

PilotOutlet economics to be validated
01 The retail constraint
The beverage is already in the outlet.
It just is not cold.
During peak demand, chilled beverages can sell faster than replacement stock cools. The retailer may have plenty of warm inventory, but limited cold choice. CryoBev addresses the time between shelf warm stock and a sellable cold beverage.
Cold stock ends
Warm replacement inventory is available.
Cooling takes time
The refrigerator becomes the bottleneck.
The sale is exposed
Choice narrows or the customer leaves.
The commercial gap is measured in minutes without cold stock, not in the amount of warm inventory available.
02 The science
CryoBev accelerates heat transfer
at the container surface.
A conventional refrigerator relies on cold air moving around the container. CryoBev creates stronger external convection and more effective thermal contact with the can surface, allowing heat to leave the beverage faster.
Conventional refrigeratorCold air
Lower external convection
Cold air removes heat gradually as replacement inventory cools inside the refrigerator.
CryoBev liquid contact routeMoving chilled liquid
Higher external convection
Moving chilled liquid continuously carries heat away across the aluminium can surface.
Cooling rate also depends on
Container size, starting temperature, target temperature, coolant temperature and flow conditions.
03 The technology platform
One commercial outcome.
Two engineering routes.
Both routes target more cold availability at viable cost. The 30 second result applies only to the demonstrated liquid contact prototype.
Route ADemonstrated prototype
30 secondsLiquid contact cooling
Moving chilled liquid removes heat rapidly from a sealed aluminium can at the point of sale.
Route BUnder evaluation
Low cost targetAirflow retrofit
Directed high velocity air is designed to accelerate cooling inside existing beverage refrigerators without replacing installed equipment.
Design principle
Fast cooling matters only if outlets can afford it.
CryoBev will select the route that delivers the greatest improvement in cold availability per unit of installed cost.
- 01Installed cost
Can thousands of outlets afford it?
- 02Cooling time
Does it restore cold availability fast enough?
- 03Energy per can
What does each chilled sale cost?
- 04Reliability
Can it survive daily retail use?
- 05Installation
Can it deploy with minimal disruption?
04 Current evidence
The 30 second result is demonstrated.
The scalable economics are not yet proven.
Clear evidence boundaries make the pilot useful. CryoBev separates the result already observed from the operating and commercial questions that still need measurement.

- Energy, water and cooling cost per can
- Throughput, uptime, safety and maintenance
- Cold stock availability and sales response
05 Commercial value
Turn shelf warm choice
into sellable cold stock.
CryoBev is designed for beverage companies, bottlers, cooler manufacturers and retail partners operating across hot markets and peak demand periods.
Protect the sale
Restore a cold option when chilled inventory is depleted.
Expand cold choice
Cool the SKU requested instead of selling only what remains cold.
Use existing assets better
The retrofit route could improve refrigerators already deployed in market.
06 Proposed accelerator pilot
A focused 6 to 9 month pilot
can identify the scalable route.
The pilot is deliberately narrow enough for an accelerator budget while producing the technical, operating and commercial evidence needed for a scale decision.
Benchmark
Instrument the current liquid design and a standard beverage refrigerator.
Compare
Build and test the airflow retrofit against liquid contact cooling.
Deploy
Field test two instrumented units sequentially across 2 to 3 outlets.
Decide
Freeze the preferred route, unit economics and rollout specification.
Pilot envelope6 to 9 monthsUp to USD 50,0002 instrumented units2 to 3 outlets
Decision metrics
