Promising marketing launch of the innovative heated hose system

Voted Top Product of the Month for February, Opening up New Market Segments and Applications

 

Masterflex AG, Gelsenkirchen - March 4, 2011

  • Voted Top Product of the Month February
  • Opening up new market segments and applications

Masterflex AG's templine heated hose system, newly launched on the market in January 2011, has enjoyed a very promising start. In addition, it has now been named Top Product of the Month for February by one of the leading trade portals for chemical and pharmaceutical technology, CAV.de. This innovative heated hose system has an extremely wide range of applications and can thus open up new target markets for Masterflex AG.

The novel technology is superior to previously prevailing solutions due to its high energy efficiency with savings of up to 30% and its even heat distribution.

Masterflex uses several heating conductors that are fixed in a spiral around the medium-carrying hose in a stable fabric braid, thus creating more uniform heating, a kind of "thermal envelope", over the entire hose. This enables the optimum passage of temperature-controlled solid, liquid or gaseous media. They are particularly suitable for transporting media that have to be kept flowable over a certain distance by temperature control. The number of individual applications in process technology is large. For example, electrically heated hose systems can be found in chemical and petrochemical plants for liquefying fats and oils, for transporting chemicals in mobile plant components, in the food and beverage industry, e.g. for transporting fats, liquid sugar, cocoa butter, and many more.

For Masterflex AG, the launch of templine heated hose systems is an important step in two respects. For the first time, solutions based on many years of special hose expertise have been developed with know-how in control technology, thus expanding the company's own technology spectrum. At the same time, this product with its current unique position in the market offers the opportunity to open up new fields of application in already established target markets and, in parallel, to address completely new industries.
