Increase hose life and lower maintenance downtime

What makes Aflex PTFE technology superior

Lined with polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE), Aflex hoses offer excellent chemical resistance and durability. Their highly flexible, kink‑resistant structure includes a smooth bore that ensures fast, clean flow even at high pressures and temperatures up to 260°C.

Precision-engineered to avoid costly and dangerous critical failure, our robust hoses are rigorously tested to the highest international safety and quality standards.

Case study: How can Aflex hoses ensure safer and flexible manufacturing?

A small molecule partnership development and manufacturing organisation (PDMO) uses over 3,000 Aflex hoses to support the safe and efficient production of small molecule APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients). These Aflex hoses eliminate the risk of process failure and contamination, while enabling continuous processing and providing a long service life.

Aflex’s capabilities enable a safe, compliant, and cost-effective fluid transfer across the API manufacturer’s complex processes, including:

• Discharging final product into containers
• Transferring liquids between vessels via bulk containers
• Emptying waste from processing equipment
• Assisting with clean-in-place (CIP) procedures
