Engineering Plastics
for Food Processing
)
hygienic, safe, process-stable
Reliability and purity for your processes
The food industry places the highest demands on hygiene, safety, and efficiency – especially under conditions of moisture, cleaning chemicals, and mechanical stress. Components must be food-safe, easy to clean, resistant to chemicals, and durable. Product quality, process reliability, and regulatory compliance are the main priorities – and the right material is the key factor.
Metals quickly reach their limits: corrosion, high weight, and hard-to-clean gaps present serious challenges. Engineering plastics offer a superior alternative – food-safe, smooth, chemically resistant, and easy to machine – making them ideal for sensitive production environments.

Industry Challenges
and how
we solve them
Food processing requires materials that:
reliably meet hygienic standards,
are easy to clean and resistant to chemicals,
remain dimensionally stable under changing temperatures and humidity,
comply with FDA, EU 10/2011, or BfR regulations.
Our ZELLAMID® plastics fulfill these exact requirements – offering optimized cleanability, high process reliability, and longer service life compared to metallic components.
