In industries where hygiene is critical — such as food & beverage, pharmaceutical, dairy, and personal care — the materials used in manufacturing and processing equipment must meet stringent standards. At the heart of hygienic process equipment is stainless steel, chosen for its durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of cleaning.

But not all stainless steels are created equal. Understanding the different grades of stainless steel — and why they matter — is essential for specifying the right material for your application.


🔍What Makes Stainless Steel “Hygienic”?

Stainless steel is favoured in hygienic environments for three key reasons:

  1. Corrosion resistance – Prevents contamination and maintains surface integrity

  2. Cleanability – Smooth, non-porous surfaces reduce microbial adhesion

  3. Strength and durability – Withstands high pressure, temperature, and aggressive cleaning cycles (CIP/SIP)

The secret to these properties lies in it’s chemical composition — and this varies significantly across different stainless steel grades.


🧪Common Stainless Steel Grades in Hygienic Applications

1. 304 Stainless Steel (1.4301)

  • Composition: ~18% Chromium, 8–10.5% Nickel

  • Applications: General food processing, light-duty applications

  • Pros: Affordable, widely available, good corrosion resistance

  • Limitations: Less resistant to chlorides and strong acids; not ideal for aggressive CIP chemicals or salty environments

2. 316 Stainless Steel (1.4401 / 1.4404)

  • Composition: Similar to 304, but with 2–3% Molybdenum

  • Applications: Dairy, brewery, pharmaceutical, biotech, and high-acid food environments

  • Pros: Superior corrosion resistance (especially to chlorides and acidic environments), ideal for repeated CIP/SIP cycles

  • Note: 1.4404 includes low carbon content (316L), reducing the risk of intergranular corrosion during welding

3. 316Ti (1.4571)

  • Composition: 316 with Titanium added

  • Applications: High-temperature and welded components

  • Pros: Titanium stabilisation improves weldability and resistance to carbide precipitation, increasing lifespan in certain process environments


⚠️Choosing the Right Grade: Why It Matters

Using the wrong stainless steel grade in a hygienic environment can lead to:

  • Surface pitting or corrosion

  • Microbial contamination risks

  • Reduced equipment lifespan

  • Non-compliance with hygienic standards (EHEDG, FDA, 3-A, etc.)

For example, 304 may be suitable for dry food handling or ambient-temperature equipment, but in dairy or pharma settings where aggressive cleaning agents are used, 316L is often the standard.


✅ What to Consider When Specifying Stainless Steel:

  • What media is in contact with the surface? (Acidic, salty, alkaline?)

  • What temperatures and cleaning agents will be used?

  • Is welding involved, and if so, what finish is required?

  • What industry regulations apply? (EHEDG, FDA, 3-A, etc.)

🔹Working with experienced suppliers — like Industrial Trading Solutions Ltd. — ensures your equipment meets both hygienic design requirements and material performance expectations.


🔩 Beyond the Metal – Surface Finish Matters Too

In hygienic environments, it’s not just about the steel grade — it’s also about surface finish. A smooth, polished surface (typically ≤ Ra 0.8 µm) minimises biofilm build-up and makes cleaning more effective. Some applications may even require electropolishing to achieve ultra-smooth finishes and passivation.


🌍 Future-Proofing Your Process Equipment

As regulatory standards evolve and sustainability becomes a greater focus, investing in the right stainless steel grade can reduce lifetime costs, minimise downtime, and ensure compliance and safety for years to come.

Whether you’re upgrading an existing process line or designing a new one, make sure your material selection reflects the demands of your process environment.

When it comes to hygienic processing, choosing the right valve isn’t just about flow control — it’s about process integrity, cleanability, and uptime.

Here’s a quick comparison between the LIAG® arc valve (for pigging and process applications) and a standard ball valve in hygienic environments:

The LIAG® valve offers clear advantages in hygiene and cleanability thanks to its dead-zone-free construction and full CIP/SIP compatibility, which help minimise product hold-up and reduce the risk of bacterial growth.

In comparison, conventional ball valves can trap product and contaminants in the cavities around the ball, making thorough cleaning more difficult and less reliable. Additionally, the LIAG® valve is purpose-built for pigging systems, enabling high product recovery with minimal waste.

✅ In short, while ball valves may suit general-purpose or utility tasks, LIAG® valves are engineered for the rigorous demands of hygienic processing — where product quality, cleanability, and efficiency are non-negotiable.

Speak to us about the right valve for your food, beverage, pharma, or home care process. Our team can support with full system design and specification. 01675 465191 / sales@industrialtradingsolutions.com

In industries where cleanliness and reliability are non-negotiable — like food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, dairy, and personal care — your hygienic pump is a cornerstone of smooth, safe production. But even the most robust pumps aren’t immune to wear and tear. Fortunately, with the right maintenance strategies and a proactive mindset, you can extend the life of your hygienic pump significantly and avoid costly downtime.

Here’s how to keep your hygienic pump performing at its best, for longer.

1. Choose the Right Pump for the Job

Longevity starts with specification. A pump that’s under- or oversized, or made from incompatible materials, will wear out quickly. Make sure you select a pump that’s tailored to:

  • The viscosity and abrasiveness of your product

  • Temperature requirements

  • Clean-in-place (CIP) compatibility

  • Pressure and flow rate needs

💡Top Tip: Work with suppliers who take the time to understand your full process – not just the pump in isolation.

🔹Need help? ITS can support you in selecting the right hygienic pump for your application — ensuring optimum performance from the outset.


2. Stick to a Preventive Maintenance Schedule

Don’t wait for failure. Create and stick to a preventive maintenance plan that includes:

  • Regular inspection of seals, gaskets, and O-rings

  • Lubrication of moving parts (if applicable)

  • Monitoring vibration and noise levels

  • Checking for product residue build-up

🧠Remember: Small irregularities can signal early-stage wear. Early intervention is always cheaper than emergency repair.

🔹ITS offers maintenance guidance and technical support to help you create a schedule that fits your operations.

                                                                       See more

3. Keep It Clean (But Carefully)🫧

Yes, it’s a hygienic pump – but CIP systems still require monitoring. Overly aggressive cleaning agents, incorrect temperatures, or prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals can degrade internal components.

  • Use only approved cleaning agents and follow manufacturer guidelines

  • Rinse thoroughly to avoid residue build-up

  • Regularly validate your CIP process to ensure effective cleaning without component damage


4. Monitor Performance Metrics

A small drop in flow rate or a slight pressure change might seem insignificant, but these could be early signs of internal wear or blockages.

Keep a log of performance metrics such as:

  • Pressure differentials

  • Flow rates

  • Power consumption

  • Product temperature

✅Pro tip: Invest in digital monitoring tools for real-time alerts and predictive maintenance capabilities.

5. Train Your Team

Operators are the front line of defence when it comes to pump health. Make sure your staff are trained to:

  • Recognise abnormal sounds or leaks

  • Understand start-up and shutdown protocols

  • Conduct visual inspections and basic maintenance

  • Report anomalies promptly

⭐A well-informed team will spot problems before they become failures.


6. Use Genuine Spare Parts

It’s tempting to cut costs with generic seals or non-OEM components, but this often leads to premature wear or even damage to the pump housing. Always use genuine, manufacturer-approved parts — they’re designed for compatibility and long-term durability.

🔹ITS supplies genuine spare parts for leading hygienic pump brands — helping you maintain compliance and performance.


7. Record and Review Maintenance Logs

A detailed maintenance log helps track wear patterns, predict part lifespans, and improve scheduling. It also builds a valuable knowledge base for new engineers or contractors.


8. Partner with a Reliable Supplier

Choose a supplier who offers more than just parts. Look for those who provide:

  • Technical support

  • Site visits and audits

  • Spare parts management

  • Upgrade advice as your processes evolve

🔹Industrial Trading Solutions Ltd. (ITS) offers all this and more — from pump selection and system design to troubleshooting and long-term support. With extensive industry knowledge and a customer-first approach, ITS is your partner in process efficiency and hygiene compliance.


💭Final Thoughts

Your hygienic pump might be a small part of a bigger process, but its reliability underpins your product quality and production uptime. A little planning and regular attention go a long way. By investing in proactive care — and working with experienced partners like ITS — your pump will serve you efficiently (and hygienically) for many years to come.
