16 N o 0032 First man-made ice rink with Linde refrigeration in Nuremberg. A manmade ice rink with Linde cooling was displayed at the Bavarian Industry and Trade Exhibition in Nuremberg in 1896. In 1883 the “Gesellschaft für Linde’s Eismaschinen” equipped the Wiesbaden slaughterhouse with a refrigeration machine. Additional sales markets In order to further reduce dependency on business with breweries, von Linde and his top engineers sought other application areas for the new refrigeration technology: ice skating rinks, refrigerator and freezer units for ships and railroad cars and even cooling systems for living spaces. For example, Carl von Linde prepared the complete building plans, including “installations for the dehumidification and temperature control of the air in the living and sleeping areas” of a planned hotel in Calcutta, India. Nothing ever came of this, however, because the financing for the project fell through. Far greater economic importance came to methods of extracting sugar from sugar beets, refrigerating milk in dairies and refrigeration in chocolate factories. There was also a cooling process for aniline production, refrigeration systems for crystallization from brines and for benzene extraction and refrigeration machines for the liquefaction of carbon dioxide and chlorine – even a method of freezing asparagus.The many new markets for refrigeration technology ensured increasing order receipts when the sales boom in the brewery industry flattened out after 1890 due to market saturation. By its 50-year anniversary, the company had thus struck a balance: By the end of 1929, the “Gesellschaft für Linde’s Eismaschinen” had sold 6,599 large refrigeration machines, with 2,057 to breweries, 1,865 for food refrigeration, 727 to ice factories, as well as 14 to mines for sinking shafts in the frozen subsoil and three for cooling furs, to name just a few. All in all, the 50-year anniversary chronicle lists 17 countries and regions where refrigeration machines were sold – ranging from Argentina and Central America to China, Japan and Russia.
