We focus on recyclable plastic hoses that not only deliver outstanding performance but are also designed with circular value creation in mind. With the Master-PUR L Cradle-to-Cradle, Masterflex has produced the first recyclable PUR spiral hose suitable for the hose industry in accordance with Cradle-to-Cradle criteria. The basic idea: to further develop plastic hoses so that they meet high-performance requirements whilst also being designed with recyclability, material safety and future material cycles in mind. In this way, recyclable PUR spiral hoses create a new combination of technical performance and sustainability standards.

Why are recyclable PUR spiral hoses becoming increasingly important?

Industrial companies are increasingly faced with the challenge of reconciling technical performance, regulatory requirements and sustainability targets. This is precisely where recyclable PUR spiral hoses come into their own. They help to rethink plastic applications without losing sight of the demands of modern production environments. These recyclable hose solutions are designed and manufactured correctly from the ground up. The Masterflex Group’s Circular Solutions for recyclable PUR spiral hoses are not limited to a single innovation, but are gradually being integrated into a broader product portfolio. With an increasingly critical eye on the ever more specific applications and individual plant set-ups of OEMs and prospective customers, we also develop bespoke solutions that are precisely tailored to the respective requirements.

By the way: It works for us! We have such confidence in our Circular Solutions that we consistently use the Master-PUR L Cradle-to-Cradle spiral hose solution in our own day-to-day production. At the Group’s sites – including Halberstadt, Gelsenkirchen and Düsseldorf – the hoses are, for example, successfully used inreal-world operations for granulate conveyance.

Reliable and recyclable hose systems are particularly relevant for applications where abrasion, material wear and high resource consumption play a role. Our PU conveyor hoses are used to transport solid, liquid or gaseous media using pressure, vacuum or gravitational force. A recyclable PUR spiral hose can form a building block of an overarching circular economy strategy – particularly when product design, material selection and subsequent recycling are considered together from the outset. 

For engineers, developers and technical procurement specialists, this means that the focus is shifting from pure functionality to a broader perspective encompassing performance, service life, material efficiency and sustainability.

Frequently Asked Questions about Hoses for the Food and Pharmaceutical Industries

  • Was ist ein FDA Schlauch in Lebensmittelqualität?

    Ein Schlauch in Lebensmittelqualität ist für den sicheren Transport von Lebensmitteln, Getränken, Pulvern und pharmazeutischen Produkten ausgelegt. Er wird aus Materialien hergestellt, die für den Kontakt mit Lebensmitteln zugelassen sind.

  • Why are dead spaces in hose and connection systems a cause for concern?

    Dead spaces can harbour product residues, moisture and germs, thereby adversely affecting hygiene, cleanability and product safety. 

  • When is an antistatic FDA-approved plastic tube a good choice?

    Prevent the ‘Big Bang’ caused by dust explosions! An anti-static, FDA-approved plastic hose is particularly useful when conveying powders such as flour, as it safely dissipates electrostatic charges.

  • What is an FDA-approved plastic tube?

    An FDA-compliant plastic hose is a plastic hose made from a material that meets the relevant FDA requirements for contact with food. This can encompass a wide variety of hose types and products. Many hoses also meet other relevant compliance standards.

  • How do I choose the correct food grade hose?

    Selection depends on the media being conveyed, operating temperature, pressure requirements, flexibility needs and regulatory requirements. Our technical team can help identify the best solution.

  • Are antistatic food hoses available?

    Yes. Several products within the range feature permanently antistatic properties for safer powder and granule conveying.

  • What industries use food grade hoses?

    Food processing, beverage production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, dairy processing and packaging industries commonly use food grade hoses.

  • Are Masterflex food hoses FDA approved?

    Many products within this range comply with FDA requirements and EU 10/2011 food-contact regulations. Always check the individual product datasheet for specific approvals.

  • What is a food grade hose?

    A food grade hose is designed for the safe transfer of food, beverages, powders and pharmaceutical products. It is manufactured from materials approved for food contact applications.
