Shanghai Mavillex‘s ’Food grade milk suction rubber hose is a special conveying hose designed specifically for the dairy industry. It is mainly used for the suction, transportation and transfer of liquid dairy products such as fresh milk, pasteurized milk and raw milk. Widely applied in pastures, milk stations, dairy processing plants and other scenarios, it fully complies with food contact safety standards, and balances core requirements such as negative pressure resistance, pollution resistance and easy cleaning. It is a key supporting product to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the dairy production chain.

I. Core Product Positioning

Focusing on the entire "milk collection" process of dairy products, this product is suitable for working conditions such as direct suction after milking in pastures, transfer transportation in milk stations, and raw milk reception in processing plants. It can be connected to milking machines, milk storage tanks, transfer pumps and other equipment to realize non-secondary pollution and low-loss transportation of milk. It completely avoids problems such as harmful substance precipitation and easy bacterial growth of ordinary rubber hoses, and safeguards the safety line of dairy products from the source to processing.

II. Core Material and Structure

The product adopts food-grade special rubber material, combined with scientific structural design, balancing flexibility and durability, and is suitable for working conditions such as negative pressure suction and frequent movement during milk collection:

• Inner Rubber Layer: Made of food-grade nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) or ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), it is odorless, phthalate-free, and free of toxic and harmful substance precipitation. It complies with food contact rubber product standards, does not affect the taste and quality when in direct contact with milk, and is resistant to milk corrosion and not easy to breed microorganisms.

• Reinforcement Layer: Reinforced by high-strength polyester cord or cotton thread weaving, it improves the compression and tensile properties of the hose. It can withstand negative pressure suction during milk collection (vacuum degree ≤ 0.08MPa), avoid hose collapse and deformation, and extend service life.

• Outer Rubber Layer: Made of wear-resistant, aging-resistant and weather-resistant rubber, with a smooth and easy-to-clean surface. It can resist friction, oil pollution and sunlight in complex environments such as pastures and processing plants, is not easy to crack or delaminate, and is suitable for various outdoor and workshop use scenarios.

• Interface: Equipped with food-grade stainless steel joints or brass joints, it has excellent sealing performance, can be quickly connected to equipment, and prevents milk leakage; the joint surface is anti-corrosion treated, non-rusting and non-polluting to milk.

III. Key Performance Advantages (Suitable for Milk Collection Working Conditions)

1. Food Grade Compliance, Safe and Secure

Fully complies with food contact safety standards, certified by FDA 21CFR 177.2600, EU Regulation 10/2011, China GB 4806.1-2016 and GB 4806.11-2016. The inner rubber layer is odorless and free of precipitation, can be in direct contact with fresh milk and dairy raw materials, does not affect milk quality, and eliminates food safety hazards.

2. Negative Pressure Resistance and Corrosion Resistance, Suitable for Milk Suction

Designed specifically for negative pressure suction working conditions of milk collection, it can stably withstand vacuum suction pressure without collapsing or flattening; the inner rubber layer is resistant to milk and lactic acid corrosion, not easy to age or crack when in long-term contact with milk, avoiding milk leakage and pollution caused by hose damage.

3. Flexible and Easy to Bend, Convenient Operation

The rubber material has high flexibility, can be freely bent and folded, suitable for narrow spaces and frequent movement scenarios such as pastures and milk stations. It is convenient to connect milking equipment and milk storage tanks in different positions, and is not easy to deform or affect flow after bending.

4. Easy to Clean, Temperature Adaptable, Convenient Maintenance

The inner rubber layer is smooth and flat, not easy to retain milk, and can be adapted to CIP (Clean-in-Place) online cleaning, which is convenient and efficient, reducing bacterial growth; the working temperature range is -20℃ ~ 80℃, which can be adapted to normal temperature transportation of fresh milk and transfer after low-temperature storage, meeting the use needs of different seasons and working conditions.

5. Wear-Resistant and Durable, Long Service Life

The outer rubber layer is wear-resistant, weather-resistant and oil-resistant, can resist friction, collision and environmental erosion in daily use; the high-strength weaving design of the reinforcement layer improves the tensile and burst resistance of the hose, not easy to delaminate or crack, adapts to the high-frequency use needs of the milk collection link, and reduces replacement costs.

IV. Typical Application Scenarios

• Pastures: Suction and transportation of fresh milk between milking machines and milk storage tanks, and milk transfer in pastures.

• Milk Stations: Reception, temporary storage and transfer of raw milk, connecting milk collection vehicles and milk storage equipment to realize efficient milk transfer.

• Dairy Processing Plants: Transportation in the raw milk reception link, connecting milk storage tanks and processing equipment to ensure clean milk transportation.

• Others: Suction and short-distance transportation of milk in small dairy farms and dairy workshops, suitable for various small milk collection equipment.

V. Summary of Product Features

With "safety compliance, adaptation to working conditions, convenience and durability" as the core, the food grade milk suction rubber hose solves the pain points such as milk pollution, hose collapse and easy damage in the milk collection link. The material meets food grade standards, the structure is suitable for negative pressure suction, the operation is convenient and the maintenance is simple. It is a special preferred product for the milk collection link in the dairy industry. It can be customized into products with different inner diameters and lengths according to the actual needs of pastures, milk stations and processing plants to meet diverse transportation needs.
