Sustainability
At Icebox, we are mindful of the impact of our business on the environment and are taking responsibility, one step at a time, to make sure that we are as green as we can be. We are continuously working on ways to reduce our plastic use but due to the nature of our business we need to take into account hygiene requirements as well as the quality and freshness of our products.
Our ice sculptures use only natural ingredients (water!) which creates only reusable waste – therefore becomes a very sustainable product to have at an event and a great alternative to creating specific displays, logos, stations etc for an individual event
We recycle all our waste water and ice and reuse our ice display plinths and trays
Our premium cubes and crushed ice bags are manufactured with bio degradable additives which will start to breakdown after approximately 6 months after exposure to sunlight...
All of our ice delivery vans are low emission vehicles with Euro 6 engines and we use AdBlue fluid
We attach a chiller on the feed of the cube maker which enables us to make more ice with less energy
Minimal plastic is used in the manufacture of our ice blocks
Icebox has also joined the fight for clean water by partnering up with Just a Drop. Just a Drop has a simple aim: to give people clean water and believe that if a community is given water, businesses will flourish; children will have more time for schooling, and the overall wealth and living conditions of the community will increase exponentially. Each year we focus our donations on a particular project, constructing a water tank and handwashing stations at a Primary School in Africa.

FAQ's
Creative Innovative Dynamic
There have been so many brilliant events / stunts that we have been involved with over the years but one of our favourites was creating a life-size pub for Lexis P.R. on behalf of Guinness Extra Cold. The project took 6 weeks to construct in our freezer warehouses and consisted of 25 tons of carving ice. Construction took place between 3 a.m. and 10.30 a.m, our crew including 4 sculptors totalled 18. Icebox handled all of the production, lighting, power, drainage and marquee requirements. The whole display, which was visited by hundreds of visitors was dismantled at 7.00 p.m the same day. International press coverage was huge; all the major national newspapers and TV stations covered the story.
