ViwateQ® treatment
The ability to perform this finishing in-house reduces costs and manufacturing time, as well as improving the environmental footprint. The process is required in particular by food, pet food, and pharmaceutical customers who need their equipment surfaces to be highly polished and hygienic.
ViwateQ® treatment – hygienic surface finish
We can also offer GEA Scan-Vibro equipment finished using the ViwateQ® finishing technology. ViwateQ® is an innovative surface treatment that creates highly polished, hygienic surfaces inside and out on stainless steel processing equipment. The treatment is chemical-free and has zero impact on the environment.
ViwateQ® surface treatment can be of particular value for food, pet food, and pharmaceutical customers who need their equipment surfaces to be highly polished and hygienic. ViwateQ® removes all unwanted contaminants from the surface of stainless steel - including the burned weld area – leaving it extremely smooth. The surface treatment minimizes the adhesion of dirt and bacteria, considerably reducing the risk of contamination as well as enabling quicker and more effective cleaning. The resulting polished surface can also make it easier to handle naturally sticky products.
