Ice is natural material present in frozen lakes and glaciers. In the past it was a resource and essentially mined during the winter and stored in ice houses to be sold as the coolant in ice boxes (a primitive refrigerator.)
At the present time ice is manufactured by refrigeration systems making it a manufactured product, not a resource. Modern refrigerators do not rely on ice for cooling. the systems generate the cold without the ice.
