General Food & Beverage Industry Requirements
Stainless steel tubing is not chemically reactive, making its inertness essential for food and beverage applications. In order to meet FDA standards and avoid hygienic hazards, the materials used must be smooth to prevent the accumulation of biofilms, able to tolerate a wide range of temperatures—cooking and freezing—for food safety, and easy to maintain and clean.
