Description
This premium reinforced TPU hose is designed specifically for demanding food and beverage applications where hygiene, flexibility and durability are critical. Constructed from high-quality thermoplastic polyurethane with an embedded reinforcement, it offers excellent resistance to abrasion, kinking and crushing while maintaining a smooth, food-contact-safe interior.
Ideal for use in food processing plants, dairies, breweries, bottling lines and commercial kitchens, this hose provides a safe and reliable solution for transferring liquids, semi-liquids and foodstuffs. A wide choice of diameters and coil lengths allows you to specify exactly the right hose for your process lines, mobile equipment or fixed installations.
Product Features
- Available in multiple outside/inside diameters, including 18.6 mm, 25.6 mm, 30.6 mm, 35.6 mm and 37.6 mm, plus over 20 additional size options to suit most food transfer systems.
- Offered in a broad range of coil lengths such as 13 m, 20 m, 25 m, 30 m and 31.8 m, with many further length configurations for reduced waste and easier installation.
- Reinforced TPU wall construction for enhanced pressure resistance and dimensional stability under suction or discharge duty.
- Smooth, non-porous inner bore to help maintain product purity and facilitate efficient cleaning and drainage.
- Flexible hose design for easy routing around equipment, conveyors and tight plant layouts without compromising flow.
- Three main performance variants (including options such as 10, 20 and 30) to cover different duty levels and operating conditions.
- Lightweight yet robust build to simplify handling, installation and changeovers in busy production environments.
Key Features and Benefits
- Food-contact-safe TPU construction helps support compliance with food hygiene standards and regulatory requirements.
- Excellent abrasion resistance extends service life in applications involving frequent movement, product solids or repeated cleaning cycles.
- High flexibility reduces the risk of kinks and flow restrictions, helping maintain consistent product transfer and process efficiency.
- Reinforced structure withstands vacuum and positive pressure, providing reliable performance across a wide range of pumping and suction duties.
- Smooth internal surface minimises product retention, helps reduce contamination risk and cuts cleaning and changeover times.
- Extensive size and length options allow precise specification, reducing unnecessary joints and potential leak points.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this reinforced TPU hose suitable for direct contact with food and beverages?
Yes, the hose is manufactured from food-contact-safe TPU material and is designed for use in hygienic food and beverage transfer applications, provided it is installed and maintained in accordance with good hygiene practice.
Can the hose be cut to custom lengths on site?
The hose is supplied in a wide choice of standard coil lengths, which can typically be cut down on site using suitable cutting tools. Always ensure cut ends are clean and square, and that appropriate food-grade fittings and clamps are used for reconnection.
Is the hose flexible enough to route around tight bends without kinking?
The TPU construction and reinforcement provide a good balance of flexibility and crush resistance. It is suitable for routing around machinery and equipment, but minimum bend radii should be observed to prevent kinking and to maintain full flow performance.
