In food and pharma manufacturing, chemical processing and other industries where the integrity of sensitive products is at stake, all aspects of production come under scrutiny. Pipework and ducting UK systems that are in direct and continuous contact with products are always at risk of introducing unwanted contaminants if they have not been well designed, specified or maintained. Food grade stainless steel modular pipework systems are most commonly constructed from stainless steel. It has been used in sensitive production environments for many decades, and there is good reason for this longevity.
