Why does meat (beef) turn dark after freezing it?

I work at a meat plant. We have a customer complaining about their steaks not being red after they thaw them out. I have tried about everything I can thin of to fix the problem. The steaks are vaccuum sealed then frozen. When packaged they are red as can be. After frozen they have a dark color. Can someone give me some insight, please.
