Hoses
In addition to high chemical resistance, durability, and food-grade properties, flexibility and ease of handling are also important for cleaning in the food and beverage industry. The cleaning staff must operate efficiently, and a kinking hose with limited protection will not withstand the conditions for long.
Our hoses have been optimised over many years to meet the demands of processors and can be used for industrial cleaning across all segments of the food and beverage industry. Superior material properties make them high-performance, safe, and reliable hoses capable of withstanding the severe conditions of a processing environment.
SC40 properties
- Exceptional temperature performance (up to 70°C at a max. working pressure of 50 bar).
- Six-layer design with double polyester reinforcement provide flexible handling:
1. Non-staining, light blue outer coating in food grade PVC able to withstand fatty acids as well as conventional chemicals.
2. and 4. Polyester reinforcement.
3. and 5. Intermediate layer: flexible, black PVC withstanding conventional chemicals.
6. Inner layer in flexible, grey PVC with high temperature resistance.
- Excellent kinking resistance.
Colour-coded hoses
Battling cross-contamination between processing areas can be a challenge - also during cleaning. Operators may unintentionally use a hose in one zone and then drag it to the next without considering the consequences.
So our SC40 hoses are now available in blue and red.
Alternating between colour-coded hoses in adjoining zones reduces the risk of cross-contamination.
