Food & Beverage Hoses

Designed for the hygienic transfer of liquids, powders, and semi-solids, with food-grade hose assemblies and compatible fittings for processing, production, and packaging environments.

Food & Beverage Applications

Food and beverage production places strict demands on hygiene, material compatibility, and cleanability. Hose assemblies used in these environments must support safe, contamination-free transfer while withstanding repeated cleaning cycles and varying temperatures.

Typical applications include:

  • Dairy transfer including milk, cream, whey and yoghurt
  • Beverage production, brewery, distilling and soft drink processing
  • Dry food powders such as flour, sugar, grain and additives
  • Syrups, oils, fats, and liquid food ingredients
  • CIP (Clean-In-Place) and washdown systems
  • Food processing, filling and packaging lines

All assemblies can be specified to suit the application, with appropriate hose construction, fittings, and hygiene requirements selected for reliable, compliant operation.

Food & Beverage Hose Assembly Solutions

Hose and fitting selection in food and beverage environments is critical to maintaining product integrity and preventing contamination. We supply hygienic hose assemblies engineered for cleanability, smooth internal flow, and resistance to fats, oils, and cleaning chemicals.

From raw ingredient intake to finished product transfer, our food-grade hose assemblies support efficient, compliant production processes across food and beverage applications.

Why These Hoses Are Used in Food & Beverage Processing

Choosing the correct food-grade hose helps ensure compliance and long service life. Important factors include:

  • FDA and EU food-contact approved materials
  • Smooth bore construction for hygiene and easy cleaning
  • Resistance to fats, oils, and CIP chemicals
  • Temperature tolerance for hot washdown and sterilisation
  • Compatibility with hygienic clamp systems and stainless steel fittings

All hose assemblies can be cut to length, assembled in-house, pressure tested where required, and supplied with certification.

Compatible Fittings & Accessories

Incorrect or incompatible fittings can compromise hygiene standards and lead to costly downtime.

Common food and beverage fittings include:

  • Tri-Clamp / hygienic clamp fittings
  • DIN 11851 dairy couplings
  • SMS and RJT threaded fittings
  • Stainless steel valves and adaptors
  • Food-grade gaskets and seals

All fittings can be supplied loose or fully assembled onto hoses, pressure tested, and supplied with certification where required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can hoses be supplied fully assembled?

Yes. We supply hoses fully assembled to your exact specification, ready for immediate installation and use.

Our in-house hose assembly service allows us to build complete hose assemblies to suit your application, including hose type, bore size, length, and end connections. Assemblies can be supplied with a wide range of fittings, adapters, and connectors, including threaded, flanged, camlock, hygienic, and specialist fittings.

Where required, we can also carry out custom fabrication and welding to create bespoke adapters or transitions for unusual or legacy systems. This ensures compatibility with existing pipework, machinery, or tanker connections, reducing downtime and installation issues.

Each assembly is produced by experienced technicians and checked to ensure it meets the demands of the intended application.

Do you offer pressure testing and certification?

Yes. Most hose assemblies are pressure tested and certified before dispatch.

We offer certified hydrostatic pressure testing using our dedicated water pressure testing equipment, providing documented confirmation that the assembly meets the required pressure rating. This is particularly important for safety-critical, regulated, or high-pressure applications.

In addition, most hose assemblies undergo standard pressure checks using our air pressure testing equipment as part of our quality control process.

Where required, we can supply supporting documentation such as:

  • Pressure test certificates
  • Material or compliance information
  • Application-specific certification

This gives you confidence that the assembly has been tested, verified, and supplied ready for service.

Can hoses be cut to length and fitted with customer-specified ends?

Yes. All hoses can be cut to order and supplied with customer-specified end fittings.

We cut hoses to your exact required length and fit them with the end connections needed for your system, whether that is threaded fittings, flanges, hygienic clamps, camlocks, or specialist connectors. This removes the need for on-site cutting or modification and ensures a clean, professional installation.

If you are unsure of the most suitable end fittings or configuration, our technical team can advise on the best options based on pressure, temperature, media, and installation constraints.

Custom lengths and fittings help minimise waste, reduce installation time, and ensure the hose assembly performs as intended in service.
