Symposium Pigging in practice

In the food and pharmaceutical industry, safety, speed and costs are essential in the production of food and medicines. If we combine these factors, the consideration to clean your piping by means of the URESH pigging system comes into view.

What could you expect?

The symposium answers the question why the proven pigging technology offers a solution for the pharmaceutical and food industry. The focus will mainly be on the exchange of practical experiences, advanced technology and cost savings. There will be expert speakers and experienced users from the food and pharmaceutical industry. Because you have the opportunity to speak with experienced pigging users, you get a complete picture of this cleaning system.

Safe cleaning of pipes and product recovery in more detail

The URESH pigging system has been developed for the pharmaceutical market where hygiene and safety must be optimal. URESH is the only manufacturer where the entire cleaning system (transmitter station, receiving station and pig) is EHEDG certified. Since the food industry has the same strict requirements in terms of safety and hygiene, this system is also interesting for this market. The static pigs are propelled by water, air or any other medium, which means that no or much less chemical cleaning agents are needed than with traditional cleaning methods.

Why is pigging interesting with regard to speed and cost savings?

Pigging is a quick way to empty and clean pipes, because the pig is pushed through the pipes without resistance. As a result, the production process only needs to be interrupted for a short time. No or much less chemical cleaning agents are needed, saving costs and the environment. In addition, there is virtually no loss of raw materials, because the pig pushes all remnants out of the pipes. In short: it is worthwhile to learn more about this cleaning system.

All presentations are given in English.
