Ceramics in food and pharmaceutical industry

When it comes to producing and packing food or medicines with low-maintenance and reliable operations, productivity and output require materials that stand up to wear and offer good dimensional stability and sliding properties while also withstanding cleaning and sterilization without damage. Kyocera ceramics offer various solutions for these requirements, improving on existing processes.

For filling operations involving abrasive products, using ceramic components significantly extends system maintenance intervals. Thanks to its high temperature and corrosion resistance, ceramic is ideally suited to cleaning and sterilization with hot steam and chemicals. Our ceramics are FDA and USP VI certified, so they can be used in these critical areas.

High surface quality and precision fits are achieved thanks to our extensive and detailed production expertise. For metal-ceramic composite components, Kyocera has standardized bonding techniques such as glueing, shrinking and soldering.
