SuperKlean endeavors to be compliant with many worldwide regulatory initiatives

SuperKlean’s has been designing and manufacturing sanitary and hot water washdown equipment for 10’s of thousands of food, beverage, and pharmaceutical plants worldwide for over 34 years. Our extensive SuperKlean-branded product family is often the first choice among many of the 35,000 Plant and Safety Managers in North America alone. In just one product area, Pharmaceutical Managers tell us that they have used highly complex scientific measurement devices to track bacteria on the surface of all hot water nozzles used in their products. In past years they have found SuperKlean’s DuraFlow nozzle design accumulated the least bacteria. SuperKlean recently released an even more bacteria resistant nozzle to not just pharmaceutical manufacturers, but to over 30 additional commercial and food related vertical markets.

SuperKlean also custom-builds many different types of hot water hoses. We are often asked, “Are SuperKlean hot water hoses FDA compliant?” Our answer is, “Food grade certification is often required for specialized equipment that has some sort of substance for human or animal consumption flowing through it. SuperKlean products of FDA complaint and meet all FDA requirements for washdown and sanitation processes. They are not food grade. Factories don’t require our type of nozzles or other washdown products to be “food grade certified.”

Likewise, SuperKlean Steam and Hot Water hose stations are designed to generate heated water, often up to 185 degrees. These hot and cold water steam mixers are regarded as the “safest in the washdown industry,” protecting workers to the maximum extent. SuperKlean hot cold mixing valves also include our 3600 Series, offered in brass or high quality stainless steel, for creating just the exact level of hot water temperature recommended by the FDA for effective killing of bad bacteria.

No matter what type of hot water washdown you need in your plant or factory, you can be assured that SuperKlean has the perfect heavy duty hose nozzle, hose swivel fitting, hose station, or hot water hose ready to ship to you within 24 to 48 hours.
