                            <content:encoded><![CDATA[Am 16. Oktober 2026 begrüßte die Masterflex Group im Rahmen des Projekts Circular Performer Emscher-Lippe verschiedene Unternehmen, Institute und Hochschulen am Standort Gelsenkirchen zum fachlichen Austausch. Im Mittelpunkt standen aktuelle Entwicklungen in der Kreislaufwirtschaft, regulatorische Anforderungen und konkrete Ansätze für eine zirkuläre Wertschöpfung. Die offene und konstruktive Atmosphäre bot den passenden Rahmen für neue Kontakte, einen intensiven Wissenstransfer und weiterführende Gespräche. Mit dabei waren unter anderem WiN Emscher-Lippe, celano GmbH, die Westfälische Hochschule Gelsenkirchen, die Hochschule Ruhr West, die IHK Nord Westfalen und das Kunststoffinstitut Lüdenscheid. Circular Economy braucht den Austausch Die Masterflex Group engagiert sich in den Fachgruppen „Kunststoffe“ sowie „Digitaler Produktpass & Indikatorik“. „Der Austausch mit Partnern aus Industrie, Wissenschaft und Verbänden hilft uns, technologische Entwicklungen und regulatorische Veränderungen frühzeitig einzuordnen und sie in zukunftsfähige Produkt- und Systemlösungen zu übersetzen“, sagt Stefan Nüßen, Bereich Technik und Entwicklung der Masterflex Group. Nach einer Einführung in unsere Unternehmensstrategie Hero@Zero standen Kreislaufwirtschaft und AMPIUS ® im Fokus. Besonderes Interesse galt dem Digitalen Produktpass: Wachsende Anforderungen an transparente Produktinformationen und die Verbindung von Kunststofftechnik mit digitalen Datenflüssen sorgten für lebhafte Diskussionen. Circular Solutions aus Engineering und Praxis Für die Masterflex Group sind Circular Solutions ein wichtiger Baustein auf dem Weg zu einer ressourcenschonenderen Wertschöpfung. Unsere Werkstoff- und Engineering-Kompetenz nutzen wir, um technische Schlauch- und Verbindungslösungen zu entwickeln, die funktionale, anwendungsspezifische und nachhaltigkeitsbezogene Anforderungen zusammenbringen. AMPIUS® ergänzt diesen Ansatz mit digitalen Life-Cycle-Tracking-Funktionen und schafft mehr Transparenz entlang des Produktlebenszyklus. Bei der anschließenden Werksführung erhielten die Teilnehmenden Einblicke in unsere Produktion in Gelsenkirchen. Der Tag klang mit weiterführenden Gesprächen in entspannter Atmosphäre aus und wir finden: „das war ein rundum gelungener Austausch, der regionale Vernetzung stärkt und neue Perspektiven für gemeinsame Lösungen eröffnet.“ Mehr über Kreislaufwirtschaft bei Masterflex]]></content:encoded>

Through real-world operation in its own demanding manufacturing environment, the company gains reliable insights into service life and applies these directly to further development, quality assurance and scaling. “What works for us also works for our customers under real-world conditions,” notes developer Jan Steinmann. Hose leadership and innovation for the circular economy “The Masterflex Group is well on the way to an eco-effective future. We still need plastics, but the right ones. It is therefore all the more gratifying to use hose solutions developed according to the Cradle to Cradle principles at our own sites. When we have such confidence in our own products, it sends a strong and important signal to the industry,” says CEO Andreas Bastin. Product data sheet The Cradle-to-Cradle concept was developed primarily by Prof. Dr Michael Braungart and William McDonough and has gained international recognition. The basic idea is to design products in such a way that they are either fully biodegradable or can be reused as technical nutrients in closed-loop systems. Join the Loop! Masterflex is currently working actively with pilot customers on new hose developments and services. Become a project partner at an early stage. We would be happy to advise you and analyse your application scenarios together. Cradle to Cradle is the future. To the product Consultancy services]]></content:encoded>

Logistics & transit: We are observing a general increase in transit times on the sea freight routes of around 14 to 21 days due to necessary diversions. We are compensating for this as far as possible through forward-looking warehousing and adjusted scheduling cycles. Freight and commodity prices: Rising energy costs and shortages of primary products can have an indirect impact on procurement prices. Please understand that, due to these unpredictable market dynamics, we must reserve the right to adjust our pricing and freight conditions should the impact reach an exceptional level. Risk management: We are in close dialogue with our logistics partners and upstream suppliers in order to identify potential bottlenecks as early as possible and activate alternative routes or sources of supply. Important note: Please note that the situation is very dynamic. The above information does not constitute a legal guarantee for future delivery dates. In the event of events beyond our control (force majeure ), delays cannot be completely ruled out despite the utmost care. We therefore recommend that you plan your requirements in good time. If you have any questions about current orders, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.]]></content:encoded>

                            <content:encoded><![CDATA[How much working time does the boss reserve for the topic of innovation, how many innovative ideas do the employees bring to the table - the scientific selection process of TOP 100 revolves around such questions. Strict test criteria Innovation researcher Professor Nikolaus Franke and his team examine the five categories of innovation-promoting top management, innovation climate, innovation processes and organisation, external orientation/open innovation and innovation success in detail. The basis for this is an online questionnaire that the participating companies fill out beforehand. Repeatedly honoured The five categories are reflected in more than 100 test criteria. The Masterflex Group impressed in the selection process and has been awarded the TOP 100 seal since 1 February. This is the 5th time that the company has been recognised as one of the top innovators. The repeated award recognises above-average innovation management and underlines the company's consistent focus on future-oriented solutions. Above-average innovation management "The renewed inclusion in the TOP 100 is a great recognition of the performance of our entire team," says Dr Andreas Bastin , CEO of the Masterflex Group. "It shows that our claim to understand innovation not as a random product, but as a structured and strategic process, has a lasting effect. At the same time, we see this award as an incentive to consistently continue on our path." With its renewed TOP 100 ranking, the Masterflex Group is strengthening its position as an innovative driving force and attractive partner for customers, employees and the market as a whole. The company will continue to make targeted investments in new technologies, processes and expertise in the future.]]></content:encoded>

                            <content:encoded><![CDATA[Masterflex Group, a leading international manufacturer of plastic hoses and connection solutions, will be presenting its latest hose systems for the safe conveying of granulate, powder and bulk solids at SOLIDS 2026 on 18 and 19 March in Dortmund. SOLIDS is regarded as the leading trade fair for bulk solids and conveying technology and therefore offers the ideal platform for presenting innovative developments to an international trade audience. Reliable PU hoses for maximum service life and greater process reliability The focus of the trade fair presentation at stand 5-Q14 will focus on the high-performance hose types "Master-PUR Inline" and " Master-PUR Performance ". The polyurethane hoses are among the most abrasion-resistant PU conveyor hoses in the world and significantly outperform conventional elastomer hoses in many applications. This is made possible by a patented manufacturing process that allows a seamless hose construction without internal weld seams and corrugated valleys. Smooth inner surfaces and exceptionally high wall thicknesses ensure low friction losses, long service life and high operational reliability - even with highly abrasive conveyed goods. For users, using the right PU conveyor hose means less wear, reduced maintenance costs, higher system availability and greater operational safety. Trade fair information & free tickets Reliable plastic hoses for demanding conveying processes The hose systems on show are specially designed for extreme mechanical loads and are used wherever abrasive bulk materials need to be transported reliably and efficiently - for example in the chemical, plastics, building materials or food industries. Thanks to variable designs and customer-specific adaptations, Masterflex offers standard products as well as customised special solutions and assembled components, tailored to the respective application and system. "Our hose solutions have been setting standards in plastic hose production for decades. In addition to a high-performance standard portfolio, we develop individual, customised special solutions and fully assembled components for demanding conveying processes," says Mirko Baldus, Sales Manager D-A-CH of the Masterflex Group. Request SOLIDS trade fair tickets and experience Masterflex hose systems at the trade fair stand Visitors to SOLIDS 2026 will have the opportunity to inspect and test the industrial hose systems live at stand 5-Q14. The experts from the Masterflex Group will be available for personal consultations. Hero@Zero Circular hose solutions "Made in Germany" In view of the increasing demand for circular economy-compliant solutions, the Masterflex Group will also be presenting current projects and developments in the field of recyclable and cradle-to-cradle-capable hose systems. The company advises on modern production methods, circular overall solutions and supplementary services along the product life cycle.

                            Flexible drinking water hose for confined installation spaces, as a bespoke solution
                        </description>
                        
                            <content:encoded><![CDATA[With a custom-designed hose for drinking water applications, the Masterflex Group once again demonstrates its high level of development expertise in the field of technical connection solutions. The flexible TPE film hose has been specially designed for use in confined installation spaces between two drinking water storage tanks – where standard solutions reach their limits. The hose is suitable for both cold and hot water applications up to +60 °C and meets the requirements for a safe and reliable drinking water supply. Furthermore, when the spiral is earthed at both ends, it can be used for the aspirated and pneumatic conveyance of non-combustible dusts and bulk materials in Zone 22, as well as for conveying gases and liquids with low conductivity in Zone 2. Hoses for drinking water – Customised solutions for complex installation scenarios The project began with a challenging application: limited space between two storage tanks, recurring leaks and a high level of installation complexity were compromising the system’s reliability. Masterflex analysed the situation on site and, on this basis, developed a bespoke solution – a TPE film hose with moulded sockets on both ends, precisely tailored to the confined installation space. There is an interesting explanatory video about the project. Discover the entertaining Spotlight video featuring Thomas Rosanelli. Watch the video The result: significantly improved sealing, simplified installation and a lasting increase in operational reliability. Development services – TPE film tubing from Masterflex “Listen, understand, improve” – put into practice at Masterflex: “In addition to a broad standard portfolio, we offer prospective customers – just as with this bespoke solution – precisely tailored hose systems that are developed entirely in accordance with customer specifications and individual requirements,” explains Thomas Rosanelli, Technical Field Representative at Masterflex. “In this way, we help our customers to reliably design and optimise processes for critical connections, thereby generating safety, efficiency and competitive advantages.” This example demonstrates how Masterflex uses technical expertise and bespoke development work to create flexible solutions that go beyond standard products.

                            <content:encoded><![CDATA[Masterflex Pilot - suction hoses made from recycled plastic In Gelsenkirchen, Masterflex SE, the global market leader for high-tech hose systems, is launching a circular economy pilot project together with NESTRO Lufttechnik. For the first time, suction hoses made from fully recycled plastic material are being trialled in industrial use. The aim is to close the material loop and make the circular economy practicable. Project launch between Nestro Lufttechnik and Masterflex SE The starting signal was given when NESTRO handed over a specially collected batch of used hose remnants to Masterflex . Masterflex produced prototypes from the recycled material; these were assessed at a joint meeting in mid-August - with a thoroughly positive conclusion. Both partners see future-oriented potential for everyday use in many industries. Masterflex hose recycling As a hose technology leader, Masterflex combines material expertise and engineering know-how . The focus is on the strategy Hero@Zero - the change towards resource-neutral solutions along the circular economy . In the future, take-back services, recycling processes and eco-certifications are planned so that products and services form a closed loop in the future. The delivered prototypes are now undergoing an endurance test in real operation. Interested companies can contact Masterflex Group as a cooperation partner and benefit from a pioneering role - Circular Economy in industrial production is now. Cooperation partners will develop solutions]]></content:encoded>

                            <content:encoded><![CDATA[The SZ Institute analysed over 5,000 companies and selected the 101 best performers. The honoured family businesses consistently show strong balance sheets, solid financial figures and stable economic development. Being recognised as one of the strongest family businesses in 2025 confirms our financial strength, reliability and future viability - and makes us proud to be one of Germany's leading family businesses. Family businesses shape the country more than many people realise. A study by the Institute for SME Research states that over 90 per cent of all German companies are family-run. They also provide around 60 per cent of jobs subject to social security contributions and train more than half of all apprentices. Without them, Germany as a business location would hardly be conceivable. Click here for the ranking]]></content:encoded>

Our CEO Dr Andreas Bastin has now been interviewed about this by the Dutch trade journal for the process industry Process Control - and explains why we as a company are consciously taking this path, what hurdles we have to overcome and how we are taking on a real pioneering role in our industry with our future strategy Hero@Zero . To the interview (original) As a leading manufacturer of plastic hoses and connection systems, we have recognised the challenges involved in handling the materials we use and their impact on the environment. We therefore anchored the topic of sustainability in our corporate strategy at an early stage (Hero@Zero ). Our goal is to gradually reorganise our entire product and consulting business by 2035 - towards a circular economy and expanded to include services such as take-back, recycling and eco-certification. We are your project partner for the circular economy]]></content:encoded>

                            <content:encoded><![CDATA[New standards for hygienic hose systems. With the Master-PUR DualFlow 1.6 Food A Masterflex presents a pioneering product innovation for the food industry. The new conveying and transport hose has a seamless, smooth thermoplastic lining on the inside - for maximum hygiene, optimised flow properties and greater safety when conveying sensitive media. Thanks to the seamless production from a single mould , the hose prevents residues, reduces cleaning effort and saves energy during operation. It fulfils the strict requirements of Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011 including all amending regulations and is therefore perfectly suited for use in the food and biotech industries . A real "hygiene booster " - developed with an eye for detail, manufactured for maximum cleanliness in the process. Faster. More hygienic. Safer. Masterflex food conveyor hoses: Now also recyclable Driven by the sustainable corporate strategy Hero@Zero , the DualFlow not only scores with hygienic performance, but also with an innovative combination of materials : robust on the outside, food-safe on the inside - and at the same time recyclable when made from single-origin materials. Segment Leader Life Marc-Julian Ott puts it in a nutshell: "Masterflex produces over 1,100 kilometres of hose per year. Innovation begins where standard ends. We don't just develop hoses - we create new ways for sensitive media." Find out more now and contact us directly! Find out more]]></content:encoded>
