Like all other types of Ziegra flake ice, midi ice consists of irregular granular pieces of ice.

Ice in storage bins can be kept for several days in a room at ambient temperature, but the ice will remains loose and friable
The most common application for midi ice is for the display of fish in retail outlets such as fishmongers, supermarkets and food service stations.
It is also very popular for packing whole fish and fillets in processors.
Where the ice is to be used for other things such as soft drinks, wine presentation etc, nuggett ice is probably a better option
