The Concept behind Polar Ice
Mimicking the natural ice-forming
patterns found in lakes and rivers,
Polar Ice allows ice on the surface
of the tray to freeze, while the
water below remains unfrozen.
We achieve this by using insulated
foam, so that only the surface of
the water is exposed to the cold.
By allowing the water to freeze
from top to bottom, layer by layer,
air and impure substances are
compressed to the bottom. They
then form a layer of “white” or
opaque ice, which can easily be
removed.
製冰原理
模擬自然界河川湖泊的凍結
模式，由水面開始結冰，而
湖底仍然維持液體狀態。
極地冰盒利用隔熱材料包覆
冰盒底部，只有水面接觸冷
凍庫內的冷空氣。在由上而
下的凍結過程，將空氣與雜
質擠壓到冰盒的底部。同時
利用冰盒的雙層結構，將透
明冰與雜質冰分離。
