Vacuum conveying technology has become an indispensable part of the food and consumer packaged goods (CPG) manufacturing process. It is being used for an increasingly wider array of tasks: moving materials like coffee beans through the food processing line, blending ingredients, even powder handling in the cosmetics industry.

The growing reliance on vacuum conveying is not hard to understand, once you consider its myriad advantages. It is enclosed, hygienic and safe, which is recommended when transferring ingredients and finished products in food processing applications. Powders and granules are ideal for vacuum conveying as well as a number of other materials. Even those materials that are sensitive to humidity and contamination can be safely conveyed.
