Before[ PVC braided hose / Threaded hose nipple / Hose clamp ]

Newly introduced production of flavorings containing large amounts of dairy components requires more stringent bacterial inspections, due to the nature of the product. The hoses are currently connected with barb fittings for hose clamp fastening, but the bumps may lead to liquid accumulation, requiring countermeasures.

After[ TOYORING-F HOSE / TOYOCONNECTOR TC3-F ]

To examine the use of the food grade hose TOYORING-F and cap nut fastened couplings which can be mounted on site to prevent liquid accumulation (TOYOCONNECTOR FERRULE), we conducted (1) ATP inspections, (2) bacterial inspections, and (3) allergen inspections, the results of all of which met in-house criteria. The products were immediately adopted for all production lines in the plant. They have resulted in production with peace of mind.

We provide a wide range of support from selecting ideal products for specific usage conditions to downloading certificates regarding laws and regulations, as well as downloading of materials such as catalogs.

You can download useful materials that address issues such as “leaks and disconnections”, “energy-saving measures”, and “odor and coloration.”

We use videos to introduce the benefits of using products and how to install them, which may be difficult to understand just using text and illustrations.

We have compiled frequently asked questions from customers in the “FAQ” section.

To assist you in making selections, we provide common examples of improvements for hoses and couplings through industry-based case studies.
