Pioneers in Hygienic Design

PFLITSCH’s hygienic solutions were not optimised afterwards for use in hygienic environments; they were developed from the outset to comply with the guidelines of the European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG). We are pioneers in Hygienic Design and an active member of the EHEDG. Our blueglobe CLEAN Plus, made of stainless steel, is the world’s first cable gland to be EHEDG-certified.
Winner of the REINER! Award 2021

The blueglobe CLEAN Plus, our low-priced hygienic cable gland made from polyamide and the first of its kind with EHEDG certification, secured 3rd place in the 2021 REINER! (CLEAN!) clean technology award from the renowned Fraunhofer Institute. Thanks to its outstanding properties, it is a crucial building block on the way to safe production processes.
