Food & Beverage Peristaltic Pumps for Hygienic Transfer & Filling
Move sauces, juices, syrups and marinades cleanly and gently. PERIFLOW peristaltic pumps with FDA-grade tubing keep food contact hygienic and filling accurate.
Why Peristaltic for Food
Why Food & Beverage Processing Needs Peristaltic Pumps
FDA-Grade Silicone Tubing
Platinum-cured silicone tubing is available in FDA-compliant grades — the only component that touches your product.
Hygienic by Design
Fluid flows through a closed tube; there are no crevices, seals or dead zones where product can hide. Tube changes take minutes.
Gentle on Shear-Sensitive Products
Emulsions, fruit pulp, sauces and marinades move without separation or damage — quality stays consistent batch after batch.
Accurate Filling & Dispensing
Digitally controlled speed delivers consistent fill volumes and repeatable condiment portions, reducing giveaway and waste.

FAQ
Food & Beverage Pump Questions
Is the tubing food-safe?
Yes. We supply FDA-grade platinum-cured silicone tubing for food contact. It is non-toxic, odorless and withstands repeated cleaning.
Can peristaltic pumps handle thick sauces and pastes?
Yes. Larger-bore tubing and slower roller speeds move viscous products reliably, and the low-shear action keeps emulsions and pulp intact.
How do I prevent flavor carryover between batches?
Because the product only touches the tube, you simply swap in a fresh tube between flavors — no stripping or deep-cleaning the pump head.
How accurate is filling with a peristaltic pump?
With calibrated tubing, PERIFLOW pumps deliver ±1% fill repeatability, cutting product giveaway and keeping portion sizes consistent.
Do you supply complete filling systems?
We supply pumps, heads and tubing as building blocks, plus OEM configurations for filling machines. Our engineers can help you design the dosing layout.
Can the pump be cleaned in place?
The pump head can be rinsed externally, and the tubing itself is the flow path — for CIP-style needs, many customers use dedicated clean tubes and swap them out.
