It Floats
Did you know that water is the only known substance where the solid state (ice) will float in the liquid state (water)?
38x
Did you know that it takes 1 calorie of energy to reduce one gram of water one degree, but it takes 38x that amount of energy to turn one gram of water into one gram of ice?
Carbon Footprint
Our unique production methods, the location of our distribution points, and our state of the art routing technologies allow HCI to have one of the smallest carbon footprints per unit in the packaged ice industry.
Natural Filtration
Our unique freezing process creates ice that is more pure than the water it's made from. It's called "natural filtration".
