The steam hose is heavy, so the cleaning work is tough. In addition, foreign matter intrusion due to inner hose deterioration is a concern

To steam clean the cheese adhering to pots and machines, we used a steam hose (made of rubber) with a ferrule barb hose band fastening.
This steam hose is heavy and stiff, making it difficult to use. Moreover, after about one year of use, rubber fragments appear due to inner hose deterioration. Foreign matter intrusion due to the hose fragments is a concern, and we concluded that some countermeasure needed to be done.

When we switched to light and soft TOYOSILICONE Steam, the cleaning became much easier.
In addition, a half-year has now elapsed since starting use, and there has been absolutely no change to the hoses, enabling long-term use and lowering the possibility of foreign matter intrusion due to deterioration, eliminating our concerns.
Furthermore, we switched to TOYOCONNECTOR for leak and disconnection prevention with hose couplings that can also be tightened with a cap nut, for a safety countermeasure that eliminates concerns about hose disconnection when using the hose band.
