Before［ PVC spring hose ］

The customer was using PVC spring hoses as air piping in a plant manufacturing secondary processed Japanese tea products. However, powdered tea leaves would be carried through the air in the plant and become attached to the insides and outsides of the hoses. The customer needed to completely clean any powdered tea leaves stuck to hoses to maintain hygiene, and doing so required stopping the entire line. Cleaning would take 30 minutes each time.

After［ TOYOFUSSO-S HOSE / TOYOCONNECTOR TC3-S ］

The customer decided to use TOYOFUSSO-S Hose products for their excellent in-hose water repellency, and TOYOCONNECTOR products so that cap nuts could be tightened without any gaps. This prevented materials from sticking to hoses, and also drastically shortened cleaning times to one-third the previous time required. The customer was instead able to spend this time on manufacturing, which increased production efficiency.
