Better hoses

Two newly improved fabric-reinforced silicone hoses, called APSM and APSW, are now available for pure processing and fluid transfer applications in sanitary industries including food and beverage. The upgraded products contain polyester material with a different thread count and weave, making the hoses easier to bend. The steel reinforced hose (suitable for suction) now incorporates different gage wire for each hose size. This makes it better prepared to handle the rigors of pressure or full vacuum applications.

Eco-friendly cleaning

X streme steam one-step dry steam cleaning and sanitizing systems clean and sanitize thoroughly even in difficult-to-reach places on equipment, production lines, packaging lines and working environments. No need for toxic cleaning and disinfection agents, the technology is clean, economical and most of all eco-friendly. Portable and self-contained, the systems use only quarts of water per hour, not gallons per minute. Some typical uses are cleaning slicers, dicers, wrappers, conveyors-chains, belts, refrigeration systems, electrical panels, sensors and more.
