ABOUT THE ASSOCIATION
Association of producers and operators of certified food ice is an organisation whose aim is to draw attention to the lack of the standards for the production of packed ice cubes in Poland. Following more conscious societies, we have set ourselves the goal of initiating and taking an active part in the creation of regulations for the production of ice cubes. Bearing in mind that ICE IS FOOD , we would like to provide accurate information on the risks that each of us may face when consuming ice if it has been contaminated. We put the safety of the consumer first and strive to ensure that the ice cube manufacturers change their attitude towards ice production. To address the problem, we have created a label to indicate the highest quality of the product so that the consumer knows that they are choosing a safe product. The right to use the label will be granted to all ice cube manufacturers who meet the relevant criteria. For details, see the other sections of the website.

Dziwny posmak lodu
Niejednokrotnie właściciele kostkarek lub lodówek z kostkarkami lub osoby przygotowujące lód w kostkach z foremek, próbując delektować się przygotowanym na lodzie napojem zauważyli, że jego posmak jest nieco „dziwny”.
Can adding ice to a drink be harmful to health?
Many publications claim that adding ice to drinks, which makes them very cold, can irritate the throat and vocal cords, especially in hot weather. And this is undoubtedly true. Warm drinks are better in this aspect as they do not contribute to such complaints and have a much better effect on the digestive system. We all know this but still use ice cubes and will use them in future.
But you can make a choice and use the ice that is safe and will not cause any problems, such as digestive complaints.

Retail ice cubes
We are in the third decade of the 21st century now, but just a few years ago none of us would have thought that ice cubes would be an indispensable product for cooling drinks on hot days and that they would be available in every grocery shop or petrol station.
