Processing and packaging applications in the food and drug industries must meet stringent standards developed to guarantee the utmost safety of products, while production methods must also be as efficient and cost- effective as possible, maximizing throughput and minimizing downtime.
To meet these dual objectives of high product integrity and efficient production, engineered coatings are increasingly being used to protect machine components, improve sanitation, provide antimicrobial properties and solve performance problems in the packaging and processing of pharmaceutical and medical products.
