The Importance of Sanitation Regulations for Food Machine Sheet Metal

Sheet metal for food processing equipment is subject to HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) and FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) regulations. Particularly for parts that come into direct contact with food, tight welding and mirror polishing are required to prevent the growth of microorganisms.

Key Regulatory Requirements

Practical hygiene management measures

Key points for selecting materials

• Uses SUS304 or SUS316 stainless steel
• Surface treatment with excellent acid and salt resistance
• Non-porous material prevents bacterial adhesion

Innovation in processing technology

Our food machinery sheet metal processing uses laser welding to achieve micron-level adhesion, which reduces the risk of microbial growth by 78% compared to conventional spot welding (in-house test results).

Application examples by industry

For dairy processing equipment, the combination of SUS316L material and electrolytic polishing prevents mold growth. In particular, the parts of yogurt filling machines have been in operation for three years without cleaning.
