Food grade rubber tubing

Food grade rubber tubing is in most cases made of silicone. There are some other food safe, FDA approved options and this includes tubing made of polyurethane, polyethylene and PVC, although it must first be checked whether the material is really safe for close contact with food or not. The same is the case with silicone. Not every silicone is food grade, because the silicone that contains any chemical fillers or byproducts, as well as anything that could potentially be toxic, is not food grade.

Food grade silicone has numerous benefits and is therefore so popular in the food industry. Every type of food industry, as well as the juices, alcoholic beverages and other beverages industries could not function without food grade rubber tubing. Of course, the first benefit of food grade silicone is that it will not impair the taste, safety or chemical composition of any food. In addition to the obvious advantage, resistance to extreme temperatures must be mentioned. It is very resistant to any damage caused by extremely high temperatures, which is important for the food industry because most food must be heat-treated. Not only is it resistant to damage from very high temperatures, but the chemical stability is excellent, so even that will not change after prolonged exposure to high temperatures and will always remain a food grade.

Food grade rubber tubing is eco-friendly and is also very easy to use as it is lightweight. It is odorless so as not to affect the food in that way.
