Food-grade silicone rubber tubing has many goods that make it ideally suited for use in the food and drink industries. The chemical properties of silicone rubber include robust construction, a non-stick surface and superb temperature flexibility. This versatile rubber tubing is found in commercial breweries, soft drink manufacturers and vending industries. In this blog, we’ll take a look at some of the most popular uses for food-grade silicone tubing.

Breweries
Beer production services also use food-grade silicone tubing to transference liquids without the risk of tainting. Apart from safety reasons, this is also vital from a brewing point of view, as the beer-making process needs separation and blending of the liquid as well as hard cleaning of the pipes later. At no point can the material affect the taste of the beer. And that makes the food-grade silicone rubber tubing as important as other materials.
Drinks Vending
An outstanding all-rounder, platinum-cured silicone tubing is often used in viable drinks vending machines. This tubing is highly appropriate for all types of vending submissions because of its clarity and impartiality, which means taste is not decreased.
Dairy production
Silicone rubber tubing is used broadly in the dairy industry. Dairy hoses are platinum-cured and are transparent in colour. Like much tubing used in the food and drink industry, dairy hoses are made of platinum-cured silicone because it does not use peroxide or ketones, allowing the milk to pass through the hose without being tainted by the silicone. The silicone can also endure sterilization without degrading.
Wine production
You’ll find silicone tubing used in wine production because, like other areas of food production, the liquids passing through the tubing must not be tainted by the tubing itself. It should also be able to withstand high and low temperatures, as well as being non-stick so as not to constrain the wine flowing through.
High-Temperature Resistance
This food-grade high-temperature silicone rubber tubing is tasteless and has been temperature-rated from -100 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. It is radiant, allowing you to easily see the flow. This silicone hose is seamless for particular breweries, mainly for applications where the wort that comes into contact with the tubing will be above 180 degrees Fahrenheit.
Safety First
When manufacturing, treating, or processing products that will be spent, safety has to come first. There is no room for error in this section! You have to ensure that what you’re producing or treating will not harm anyone in any way. Because silicone rubber hoses are inert, form an actual barrier, are resistant to temperature fluctuations, and can securely come into direct contact with foods and drinks without contaminating them, they are a great choice for preserving high levels of customer safety.
