World leading dairy company switches to FaBLINE™ for better hose life

wATSON 2
Leading dairy products group Lactalis has switched to using FaBLINE™, a food grade PTFE-lined hose from Aflex, to transfer milk, yoghurt and fruit filling at production facilities in Serbia and Croatia.

“The FaBLINE hoses have shown exceptional durability and flexibility, and the safety of the operators connecting the tank with fruit paste and the system on the yoghurt line has increased.”

Engineering experts at Aflex, part of Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions, have developed FaBLINE to meet the latest hygiene standards. The patented PTFE-lined hose, with standard 316 stainless steel braid and EPDM cover, ensures efficient product transfer and handling with extended life over any rubber hose alternative on the market.

For applications where hoses are tasked to dispense highly viscous media in precise quantities, traditional rubber hoses can block or burst. FaBLINE’s low friction, smooth bore construction will minimise back-pressure to avoid downtime and material losses.
