Our stainless steel piping installation and fabrication services are expertly designed to meet the highest hygiene standards essential for industries such as dairy, food, water, personal care, pharmaceuticals, and beverages. We specialize in the precise and reliable execution of food-grade welding, ensuring that every component of your piping system meets stringent safety and quality requirements.
Central to our process is the use of TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding, renowned for its ability to produce clean, high-quality welds. TIG welding is particularly suited for food- grade applications due to its precision and the inert gas shield that protects the weld area from contamination and oxidation. This method ensures smooth, defect-free joints that maintain the integrity of the stainless steel and meet rigorous hygiene standards.
Before welding, we meticulously prepare the stainless steel surfaces by thoroughly cleaning them to remove any contaminants, ensuring a pristine weld. The welding process is carried out with careful control to avoid introducing any impurities or altering the material properties.
Post-welding, we employ pickling and passivation treatments to enhance the hygiene and durability of the piping system. Pickling removes any residual oxides or impurities from the weld area, while passivation creates a protective chromium oxide layer that significantly improves resistance to corrosion and ensures a clean, smooth surface. These treatments are critical for preventing bacterial growth and maintaining the overall cleanliness of the piping system.
The final stage involves polishing the stainless steel to achieve a mirror-like finish. Polishing not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also minimizes surface roughness, reducing the risk of bacterial adhesion and making the pipes easier to clean and maintain.
By integrating expert TIG welding with rigorous pickling, passivation, and polishing processes, we deliver stainless steel piping solutions that ensure exceptional hygiene and reliability. Our commitment to these high standards ensures that your systems perform optimally in demanding environments, adhering to the most stringent industry regulations.
