Meat, Fish & Poultry Processing
Plastics and intelligent components for food processing
Plastics for safe and efficient food production
Processing plants for meat, fish, and poultry often consist of numerous systems and components, whose long-term reliability is critical. Engineers must design cost-efficient, low-maintenance systems that also meet strict hygiene and safety standards.
We offer a wide range of plastics specifically developed for these requirements. All materials are approved for direct food contact under EU Regulation 10/2011/EU and FDA, and are used throughout the entire production chain – from conveyors and autoclaves to cutting boards.
Smart solutions for food processing
Our new smart materials are developed specifically for the food industry and offer intelligent solutions that meet the demands of modern production.
Count on proven quality – enhanced by innovative technology.
Smart materials – ID
Your conventional material is now smart!
By integrating microscopic fluorescent marker particles directly into the plastic, your component becomes identifiable as your original product.
The “ID” suffix indicates that the material contains these advanced marker particles.
EU & FDA approval
Our materials meet the strict standards of EU Regulation 10/2011/EU and the FDA, and are certified for direct contact with food.
This ensures the highest level of reliability and safety in the food sector.
