Hygienic valves

Hygienic valves from Tapflo are high-quality components made of forged 304L and 316L stainless steel.

All valves in our portfolio are serialized for full traceability, even 304L valves, and are manufactured within TÜV NORD ISO 9001: 2015 approved manufacturing process.

Valves are 3A and FDA certified for food and dairy use.

They meet also pharmaceutical industry demands regarding USP Class VI elastomers. With a broad range of hygienic processing valves and flow devices, we successfully serve the food, dairy, wine, beer, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and allied sanitary industries. From basic 304L to high purity 316L ASME BPE specifications, Tapflo has the experience and dedication to meet your sanitary valve requirements. In addition to the standard product, our designers offer engineering expertise and resources to provide custom product solutions.
