When most crack open an ice-cold soda or peel the lid back so they can dive into a snack, their first thought likely doesn’t concern all the hard work that went into making the product they’re about to enjoy. For those who work in food and beverage processing, having the right equipment is essential to providing the safest products for consumers.
Reels play an important role in food and beverage processing. Not only can they be used to maintain a clean, sanitary environment, they assist in food and beverage transferring processes. Below, we’ve listed just some of the ways that Hannay Reels can improve your operation.
Keep Your Workplace Safe and Sanitary
Tangled, unkept hoses can create chaos on a processing line. With strict health guidelines to follow and production quotas to meet, it’s simply not an option to allow hoses to lay on the ground or become a knotted mess. Hannay reels keep everything in order by allowing easy, effective hose storage.
Without a reel, hoses can become kinked and tangled. When this occurs, it significantly raises the risk of bacteria buildup within the hose. That means your product could be directly contaminated. Using reels ensures proper hose storage and, with Hannay’s stainless-steel reel construction, you’ll have a hose that’s resistant to rust and corrosion. And without any paint on our reels, you won’t have to worry about paint chipping, which could lead to product contamination.
Improve Your Productivity
As with other industries, production efficiency is key in food and beverage processing. There simply isn’t time to fumble around with multiple, lengthy hoses. A reel installed with a manual or power rewind option makes it that much easier to deploy and put away hoses, allowing for smoother, more efficient daily operation.
That was a major motivating factor for the owners of Albany Distilling Co., who purchased a Hannay Reels SSN800 Series reel several years back.
They wanted dependable equipment they could rely on to help make their processes flow easily and safely. It was also important for them to buy an American-made product. The team was pleased to find Hannay right in their home state of New York.
The owners of Albany Distilling Co. knew that they couldn’t waste their hard-earned money on a reel that wasn’t ready or able to perform at the level they required for their business. Since purchasing a Hannay reel, the team has been more than satisfied with the quality, reliability, and performance. Their SSN800 Series reel keeps hose ends and nozzles up off the floor, preventing dirt and bacteria buildup and other safety and sanitary hazards.
