Sugar
High-performance, abrasion-resistant, non-contaminating food-grade sealing solutions for demanding sugar crushing, extraction, and refining operations
Sugar processing and refining require food-safe sealing materials that maintain product purity while handling high temperatures, steam, and sugar solutions. Inmarco provides FDA-compliant sealing solutions for crushing, extraction, clarification, evaporation, and crystallization processes.
Critical Sealing Challenges
- Food-grade material compliance and zero contamination requirements
- Sugar syrup crystallization and hardening in seal chambers
- Viscous, sticky residue causing seal congealing and reduced performance
- Frequent high-pressure washdown and sanitization cycles
- Abrasive bagasse fibers in juice extraction processes
- Corrosive acid and lime treatment chemicals in clarification
- Thermal cycling stress between processing and cleaning operations
- High-temperature steam operations (up to 140°C in evaporators)
