Rota Val are now hygiene certified with type ED Class II (closed or open equipment dismantled for dry cleaning only) for a range of their rotary valves by the European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG).
This certification ensures that Rota Val can support food manufacturers by offering rotary valves with assurance that they comply with the strictest hygienic requirements to enable safe food production.
EHEDG is a consortium of equipment manufacturers, food industries, research institutes and public health authorities, founded in 1989 with the aim to promote hygiene during the processing and packing of food products.
The principal goal of EHEDG is the promotion of safe food by improving hygienic engineering and design in all aspects of food manufacture and this has been backed up by their recent new higher standard requirements for certification.
