FOOD & BEVERAGE INDUSTRY
The food and beverage industry covers a wide variety of processes, from processing raw ingredients to packaging food for all types of consumption.
At every stage, the equipment - including pumps - in any industry must comply with government sanitary standards to prevent food contamination and expiration.
ARGAL® ASTRAFOOD pumps are FDA and ATEX certified and can therefore be used in food processing plants to pump sauces, pastes, pâtés, drinks and more.
