Southampton, PA — Now available from AdvantaPure is a complete Hose Identification solution for clean applications. The company offers three different Hose Identification methods that may be used together or individually. All three options solve the problems of permanence, clarity, and cleanliness. Choose from striped silicone tubing, laser-etched stainless steel collars, or silicone-encased labels with color striping.

AdvantaPure developed its Hose Identification systems to address issues involved with metal, plastic, and paper tags used to identify hoses. The tags often get in the way of operations, degrade, and do not provide a sterile surface. AdvantaPure’s methods are clean and easily identified. Color options offer a quick way to differentiate one hose line from another.

One Hose Identification method is striped silicone tubing. Color stripes of red and/or blue are co-extruded with the tubing and cannot be washed off like ink. The platinum-cured tubing remains a clean, all-Class VI product and offers the user clear line identification along the entire length of tubing.

A second option, laser-etched collars, can create product traceability, reinforce and enhance a company’s image, and identify capabilities or limitations. The collars, made of durable stainless steel, are permanently etched with application-specific information provided by the customer. Because AdvantaPure’s collars are etched using precise laser technology, instead of the typical acid method, the text and images are sharper and more legible, presenting a professional image.

And finally, the AdvantaLABEL® silicone hose labeling system uses permanently-vulcanized silicone to encase a label and color stripes to the outside of silicone tubing and hose for quick, easy-to-read identification. AdvantaLABEL is permanently sealed to the hose in clean silicone and may be steam sterilized or chemically cleaned without detrimental effects. Customers use AdvantaLABEL to identify which department or piece of machinery a sterilized hose must be returned to for reattachment and reuse, offering a reduction of critical errors.
