Food and beverage dispensing applications vary widely from wine and beer products, which contain the solvent ethanol to dairy products, which can accelerate bacterial growth on tubing surfaces if not cleaned with aggressive chemicals. Such a range of product applications requires flexible tubing solutions with highly specific and often varying performance properties. Attributes such as flexibility, durability, chemical resistance and non-leaching attributes — in varying capacities — are critical to the success of the dispensing tubing and dispensing equipment as a whole.
