New Product: BFM? Venting Surge Hopper
We're excited to introduce our latest innovation - the BFM? Venting Surge Hopper.
It's an intermediary hopper that provides an ingenious new solution to bridging - a common problem for manufacturers processing bulk powders.
Made from our flexible, transparent Seeflex 040E material, the Venting Surge Hopper lets you both see and free up any bridging - as it happens.
Are your flexible connectors putting staff at risk?
One of the many health and safety risk areas in bulk powder processing is the transition points between pieces of equipment. To protect staff in these locations, using proven, safe, and reliable flexible connectors is important.
Find out why old-style hose-clamped connectors should be avoided and how to better control staff access to dangerous locations. Read more.

Don't waste chemicals in your Clean-In-Place processes
Whether it's the product itself or cleaning agents used during Clean In Place (CIP), certain chemicals or ones used in too high concentrations can cause premature degradation of any flexible connector. Find out more.
How long will a flexible connector last?
It's a common question - and there isn't an easy answer. There are some common factors that will cause premature wear, but there are ways to minimize these to get better long-term performance. Learn about the key factors affecting connector life.
