Is the CLEAN STAR 6-Layer PVC Hose for Hot & Cold Water Washing safe for food contact and compliant with EU No. 10/2011?

Yes. The CLEAN STAR 6-Layer PVC Hose for Hot & Cold Water Washing is safe for food contact and is fully compliant with EU No. 10/2011 (simulants A, B, C). Its smooth, heat-resistant PVC inner layer and food-grade outer surface are designed to withstand greases, fats and oils, while the hose’s construction and recommended TR-THERMO-12-BZ140-08-SS fitting provide a hygienic solution suitable for food-industry use.

Can the CLEAN STAR 6-Layer PVC Hose for Hot & Cold Water Washing withstand prolonged exposure to hot water and light chemicals without degrading or losing flexibility?

Yes. The CLEAN STAR 6-Layer PVC Hose for Hot & Cold Water Washing is specifically engineered to withstand prolonged exposure to hot water and light chemicals without significant degradation or loss of flexibility. Key points from the product description: - Six-layer construction with a smooth PVC inner layer enhanced for elevated temperature resistance. - Intermediate and outer layers formulated to protect against detergents and disinfectants. - Food-grade outer surface reinforced to resist greases, fats and oils commonly encountered in demanding food-industry environments. - Double polyester braid reinforcement preserves strength and kink resistance during intensive use. - Operating temperature range −15°C to +70°C and working pressure up to 50 bar, suitable for routine hot-water washing tasks. - Compliance with EU food contact regulation No. 10/2011 (simulants A, B, C) confirms suitability for sensitive production areas. For best long-term performance, use recommended fittings (e.g., TR-THERMO-12-BZ140-08-SS) and avoid exposure to stronger chemicals or temperatures above +70°C, which could accelerate wear or affect flexibility.
