Seals in Dairies
Special characteristics of this industry
In the dairy industry, influences such as the high fat content in product media need to be taken into consideration when choosing materials. An EPDM material which, for example, demonstrates excellent stability in CIP /SIP media, only has limited stability in fatty media. For this purpose, Freudenberg Process Seals offers you optimal alternative materials, depending on the application.
In the case of fatty media with a high protein content, cleaning with high concentrations of alkaline solution at high temperatures is carried out even more intensively. Even steam sterilization takes place for longer in some dairies than it does in breweries for example. Seals made by Freudenberg Process Seals are designed appropriately to cope with this.
