Food Tubing * Newsletter 2014-01

Food Tubing made of PVC (TYGON®), phthalate-free

The new food tubing made of PVC is suitable for food, milk and dairy products, and does not contain phthalates. The tubing is absolutely compatible with dry and moist products, acidic or alcoholic substances up to +50 °C, as well as with milk. It is highly resistant to strong alkaline detergents and is equally unaffected by commonly used sanitizers, but it is not suited for fatty products!

The inner surface is absolutely smooth and non-porous, it promotes a hygienic flow and prevents the formation of deposits, thus making the bacterial growth difficult.

The non-toxic, odourless and tasteless tubing complies with REACH and RoHS Directives (2002/95/EC) as well as European Directives (2002/72/EC) for food and plastic materials, and meets the requirements of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The temperature ranges from -35 to +74 °C. The recommended sterilisation method is therefore ethylene oxide, because for example a steam sterilization within the indicated temperature range is not possible.

The tubing is available with an inside diameter up to 25.4 mm and can alternatively be used as a flexible replacement for rigid piping systems. Its absolute transparency allows the visual examination and optimal flow control of liquids, even with light media.

The PVC food tubing is easily pliable and thus well suited for a quick installation due to a shore hardness of A 64°.
