PFA-Lined Valves for Food and Beverage Industry

Hygienic and Safe Food Processing

In the food and beverage industry, cleanliness and contamination control are paramount. From processing to packaging, every step must adhere to strict hygiene standards, including resistance to aggressive cleaning agents and high temperatures. Our PFA-lined valves—including ball valves, control valves, check valves, strainers, and sight glasses—are designed for these challenging environments. The Clean Room Series products, featuring electro-polished stainless steel bodies, offer superior sterility and are GMP-compliant, making them perfect for aseptic processing in food production facilities. PFA’s non-reactive, non-stick properties ensure that food contact surfaces remain uncontaminated, making them perfect for beverage production, dairy processing, brewing, and more. These valves also provide protection against frequent exposure to CIP (clean-in-place) chemicals and high-pressure steam, ensuring product purity and equipment longevity.

Solutions for Food & Beverage Industry
