In April, an exhibition dedicated to the brewing industry was held in the USA and as part of the event, Aquaterm promoted its products — polypropylene pipes, and their universal significance for various business infrastructures, including the brewing industry.
The multifunctional green pipes Aquatherm were previously called fusiotherm pipes, but after the rebranding, the company changed the name of their product. Although the quality of the material remains the same. The Aquatherm piping system is made of ecological material, which is excellent for systems that supply drinking water and other liquids that require special strict hygiene.
Here are the advantages that the representative of the Aquaterm company highlights for its products, as a product for the brewing industry.
Aquatherm does not react with water or glycol so cooling systems will never corrode. And they won’t become brittle over time or exposed to extreme temperatures. They are resistant to water freezing, so they are ideal for heating systems as well as for cooling systems.
Traditional piping materials use either foreign substances (adhesives or solders) or mechanical connections (gaskets and threads) to tie the system together and ultimately these bonds are not durable. Aquatherm’s requirements are connected using thermal fusion, which is done quickly, but reliably creating an airtight connection.
To form a joint, the material is melted, bonded together, and then cooled. The material becomes one solid piece, making the joints as strong as the pipes themselves. To expand the piping system, Aquatherm offers fusion outlets that can be added by drilling and further thermal fusion directly into the pipe wall. This provides a significant reduction in system downtime when it is reorganized.
Aquatherm can be used in most brewery systems (cooling, domestic water, heating, blowdown, processing, etc.). According to an Aquaterm representative who attended the brewing industry exhibition, the company gives a 10-year warranty on its product, which covers replacement, employee injuries and even lost profits.
