Rotarex introduces a food compliant range of gas equipment

Lintgen, Luxembourg 10 July 2019—www.rotarex.com—Rotarex, is proud to introduce FOODLINE®, a comprehensive line of gas-supply equipment for the food processing industry that's certified compliant with EU regulation EC 1935:2004. This regulation was put in place to ensure materials used in food processing will not introduce any contaminant that could be harmful for humans.

By achieving the EC1935:2004 certification, food processors, gas companies and system installers can be confident that Rotarex' FOODLINE equipment will not introduce contaminants into gases used in food processing or that are considered part of the "Food Package" at a level that is unsafe for people.

Philippe Schang, Global Sales Director, commented: "Many supermarkets, agro companies, and other food-related businesses are aware that it's a best-practice for all gases that come into direct contact with food to be EC 1935:2004 compliant. But they may not be aware that this also applies to gas handling equipment."

FOODLINE components are manufactured with materials that are either on the EU regulation "Positive List" or have been rigorously studied by Rotarex R&D experts and proven not to cause possible contaminant migration into gases at a harmful level. Certified to be non-toxic for human consumption, the materials used in FOODLINE components are food contact-approved, and are manufactured in a controlled environment. The final product is shipped inside food approved packaging and FOODLINE equipment is traceable according to Rotarex's demanding quality standards.

Mr. Schang elaborated: "Rotarex believes the FOODLINE will offer customers real peace of mind, thanks to compliance with this directive. With our comprehensive range of EC 1935:2004 compliant products, they can find the equipment they need, including pressure regulators, supply boards, switchover boards, point-of-uses, line valves and accessories. And all products have been specially adapted to meet the requirements of the food processing industry."

Rotarex applied its decades of experience and engineering excellence to ensure that all FOODLINE components meet the highest quality standards. A global company, Rotarex is present with sales offices and partners worldwide. Customers can count on expert support wherever they are.
