The Future of Soft Serve Has Arrived: SHAPE by Finamac!
Get ready to witness the single greatest technological revolution of the last 90 years: Finamac's definitive machine that will render all other soft serve equipment obsolete! Following over a decade of intense research and bold development—bringing together PhD engineers and renowned research institutes—Finamac redefines the global market by fusing nearly a century of evolution into a disruptive engineering masterpiece.
The Extraordinary Journey of Soft Serve
1930s | The Unexpected Origin: In 1934, Tom Carvel sold semi-melted ice cream after a flat tire and discovered the public's passion for soft textures, patenting his first machine in 1936. In 1938, J.F. McCullough, Harry Oltz, and Frank Thomas Jr. revolutionized the sector with continuous freezing at -6°C and pressurized air injection, giving birth to Dairy Queen.
1950s–1990s | The Industrial and Global Revolution: Pressure pumps pushed overrun up to 70%, multiplying profitability. Concurrently, Brazil created the iconic 'Sorvete Americano' machine—a concept reinvented by Finamac to create FLASH (2026), the ultimate instant ice cream machine.
1992 | The Finamac Aerospace Era: Finamac shocked the industry by launching the Multiserv Pro, the world's first soft serve machine built with 1mm mechanical stretch (flow-forming) cylinders—technology straight from the space rocket industry for record thermal conductivity.
2000s Onward | Connectivity and Precision: The category evolved with self-pasteurizing systems, touchscreens, IoT diagnostics, and adaptation for new markets like frozen yogurt and açaí.
Finamac's Visionary Tradition: The SHAPE Project
Since 1954, when Italian-born Domenico Arpino dreamed of elevating industry quality, the market awaited an innovation that would break away from the outdated '3-lever' look. In 2017, Finamac unveiled the first generation of SHAPE in Latin America, captivating the industry. Now, prepare for the launch of the SHAPE Second Generation (2027/28)—the pinnacle of disruptive engineering!
