Improving resistance to fluid odors and significantly increasing operability

When using PVC resin hoses with hard steel wires for transferring products such as lotions and bathwater additives, the hoses become contaminated with odors from the products, resulting in the need for separate hoses for each product.
However, replacing hoses is not easy in some situations, and replacement could lead to assembly mistakes that would likely result in product defects, so the customer must adopt appropriate countermeasures.

After looking into Toyox’s fluorine hoses—including by watching the video comparing the non-adhesive performance of hoses—the customer decided to adopt TOYOFUSSO-S hoses for their excellent odor resistance. After switching hoses, the customer no longer had problems with odor contamination and was able to significantly reduce cleaning time. The new hoses eliminated the need to change hoses for each product, and those working on-site were extremely happy with the reduced workload.
