Dairy
Milk is important for providing nutrition and promoting health. It can also turn bad in a short period of time if not provided a copacetic environment. Grundfos hydraulic pumps keep milk and other dairy products fresh and free of cross contamination.
Chocolate and Confectionary
For both of these applications, process control, strict temperature control and precise handling of solids are essential for producing a high quality product. Grundfos pumps provide all of these; they are reliable and are easily cleaned.
Processed Foods
Some food mixtures can be extremely viscous and they must be kept moving. Grundfos pumps gently handle all food mixtures, abrasive or corrosive media and crystallines.
Plant Service Systems
Grundfos produces a full line of pumps for plant service processes and systems. They produce pumps for virtually any facility involved in the industrial water circuit. This includes delivery of water to the plant and moving water to where it’s needed once it’s inside the plant for applications such as cooling systems and boilers.
Grundfos also makes pumps for moving wastewater out of a plant and towards a wastewater treatment facility.

What Makes Grundfos Pumps Special?
Grundfos pumps possess a number of characteristics that separate them from the field when it comes to sanitary pumps.
HyGenix
HyGenix is the Grundfos name for their design philosophy when producing sanitary pumps. It is proprietary, but we can reveal that it employs a number of unique manufacturing techniques that allow Grundfos to proudly proclaim that their pumps are the safest in the world for sanitary applications such as the food industry.
One of the biggest features of HyGenix is that Grundfos pumps are totally devoid of seams, edges, screw heads and dead-ends. This is important because those are the places where bacteria can collect and cause contamination in other pumps.
NOVAlobe
NOVAlobe is a process by which Grundfos can provide solutions which are appropriate for specific products. NOVAlobe is able to handle solids. The NOVAlobe shaft seal is located directly in the path of the flow of product in a forward position. This makes the seal more easily cleaned while improving seal lubrication.
