What Dohmeyer does

Dohmeyer is a Belgium-headquartered manufacturer of cryogenic refrigeration systems serving food processing, pharmaceutical/biomedical, recycling, and industrial manufacturing customers globally. The company designs and produces equipment that uses liquid nitrogen (LIN/LN2 at -196°C) and liquid CO2 (LCO2 at -78°C) for rapid freezing, cooling, and temperature-controlled processing, with a portfolio of more than 20 distinct equipment products spanning IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) systems, coating and mixing lines, immersion baths, blast and crust freezers, and ultra-low temperature cabinets.

Core offerings include CryoRoll, Cryo Spiral, Cryo Tunnel, Multibelt Freezer, and Trideck Tunnel for high-throughput IQF food freezing; Cryo Tumbler and Cryo Mixer for cryo-coating; Fat Glaze Crystallization and Crown Hardening units for ice cream; Industrial Immersion Bath for metal treatment, shrink fitting, and recycling; and the CryoXpert sub-brand portfolio of controlled-rate freezers, pharmaceutical blast freezers, and cryogenic pelletizers engineered for ISO 13485, cGMP, and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance for pharmaceutical and biotechnology customers. Process specifications include cooling rates from 0.1 to 60°C per minute, throughputs up to 5,000 kg/hour, equipment footprints 75-80% smaller than mechanical alternatives, and dehydration below 1%.

Dohmeyer operates an enterprise-focused direct sales model through four regional offices (Belgium as European HQ in Roeselare, USA in Hartland Wisconsin, Poland in Mielec, and UAE in Dubai) with custom-quoted pricing per configuration and capacity. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of capital equipment (food, pharmaceutical, recycling, and industrial processing customers), supplemented by 24/7 technical support services via a dedicated helpline. The company addresses primary verticals in Food & Beverage Processing and Biomedical & Pharmaceutical applications, with secondary segments in Environment & Recycling and Industrial Technologies, including aerospace, automotive, and steel customers.
