ELECTROLIZING® CHROMIUM BARRIER COATINGS FOR FOOD PROCESSING & PACKAGING
Adding an Electrolizing® thin dense chrome coating to food processing and packaging lines can make a huge impact on your site’s reliability, production times, and maintenance costs. Here we will review all the ways Electrolizing’s coatings can help.
WHY USE ELECTROLIZING® COATINGS FOR FOOD PROCESSING AND PACKAGING?
What are some of the reasons to invest in a thin dense chrome coating for your food processing and packaging lines? Here is a list of all the reasons it will help improve reliability, reduce maintenance costs and speed up manufacturing process times.
KEY BENEFITS:
- USDA & FDA compliant for use with food and beverage
- Corrosion resistance comparable to 440 stainless steel
- Expedites cleaning and sanitary operations
- Chemical resistance to most cleaners for maintenance and wash down
- Absolute bond to base metal resulting in no peeling or chipping – no need to worry about contamination
- Non-stick and reduced friction for improved lubricity and release
- Can run dry with excellent lubricity when cleanliness is required
ADVANTAGES OF THE ELECTROLIZING® COATING FOR THE FOOD PROCESSING AND PACKAGING INDUSTRY
Common applications for Electrolizing® in the food processing and packaging industry include bearings, chutes, pumps, linear rails, heat seal jaws, cutting tools, and machined packaging line components.
Let’s take a look in more detail at the advantages of adding an Electrolizing® coating to your food processing or packaging line(s).
A DURABLE TREATMENT FOR LUBRICITY
Electrolizing® can be applied to all grades of stainless steel, eliminating the need for non-durable treatments for the purpose of lubricity. The coating’s bond to the base metal is absolute, meaning it will not chip or peel once applied.
FDA AND USDA COMPLIANT
Electrolizing® is USDA compliant and considered safe for food contact by the FDA. The coating’s resistance to corrosion caused by daily wash-downs aids in reducing maintenance downtime.
Applying Electrolizing® to stainless steel results in magnitudes of corrosion resistance much greater than stainless steel or coated tool steel.
