Before[ PVC braided hose ]

On a chocolate production line, a 38-millimeter PVC braided hose was in use. To comply with Public Notice No. 267 under the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare’s Food Sanitation Act, a replacement was needed right away. When they looked for food-grade hoses, they found a number of candidate products from other companies, but none could handle the oils and fat in chocolate.

After[ HYBRID TOYOFOODS HOSE / TOYOCONNECTOR TC3-F ]

Four types of PVC food grade hoses that are compatible with oils and fats were in use, but HYBRID TOYOFOODS was adopted to prevent the hoses from collapsing and affecting the flow rate. The problem was solved by the food grade hose that supports oils and fats. In addition, the coupling was changed to one with very few level changes between the hose and coupling, improving cleaning efficiency and reducing the cleaning time.
