OVERVIEW of TIVAR® VMX Food Grade UHMW-PE |
TIVAR® VMX Food Grade UHMW-PE - Engineered plastics with visual, metal, and x-ray detectability. Increase safety and efficiency with the VMX (Visual, Metal, X-Ray) portfolio. Our new VMX polymers enhance your food processing capabilities by bringing three-way detectability and dual food compliance (EU and FDA). The range includes four unique polymers; each tailored to meet different performance requirements.
Applications: Chain guider elements, Funnels, Rollers, Bushings, Sprockets, Mixing Paddles
VMX benefits:
Increased detection via particle detection from 2mm in Visual (materials are a highly visible blue), Metal and X-Ray.
Regulatory compliance with FDA and EU 10/2011 Food Grade (all products come with migration test documentation) for use in food processing. Also manufactured within GMP guidelines.
High-quality material is in stock globally. It is designed by our experts who truly understand the requirements of the food processing industry.
Resistance to high temperatures and aggressive chemicals which would otherwise corrode metals - ideal for clean in place (CIP) and sanitize in place (SIP).
