Food Hose requires a tube that will not contaminate the product being conveyed. In the same way that rubbers and thermoplastics are formulated to handle different chemicals, gases, or materials, they are also made to suit various foods. For example, oily products will require an oil-resistant tube compound, while other hoses may be formulated more for heat or abrasion resistance.
