Sanitary pumps for the food, cosmetics & pharmaceutical market
Castle Pumps have been supplying FDA, 3A and EHEDGC approved hygienic pumps to the food, drink, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries for over 15 years. Unlike many companies who specialise in a specific pump type, we represent a variety of technologies meaning that we don’t have to make our sanitary pumps “fit” your process, meaning that you get the right pump, not just one that does the job. Getting the wrong pump for your process can result in inconsistency in the finished product, crushed solids, clogging, excessive wear, loss of productivity, wastage of costly product or at worst, contamination.
From viscous, solid laden sauces to shear sensitive creams and shampoos to fruit juices or water-based skin products, our hygienic pumps do the job. So, whether it's dosing specific quantities of ingredients, transferring the finished product into containers or removing any waste product, let us specify the right sanitary pump solution for you.

FAQs
The FDA states that in order to be food grade, the food contact surfaces of a hygienic pump need to be smooth, free of cracks and crevices, non-absorbent, cleanable, non-toxic and corrosion resistant to ensure that no food or bacteria can harbour and contaminate the product.
Clean in Place (CIP) is the ability for a pump to be easily taken apart, cleaned and sterilised without having to remove it entirely from the installation. This is of high importance for food processing pumps and those used in pharmaceutical industries where the product is to be used for human consumption.
Food grade pumps are constructed of materials that the FDA states are safe for human consumption. This is usually sufficient, however we also supply 3A and EHEDG models where the actual pump design has been reviewed and certified as meeting hygiene standards safe for use as a food industry pump.
All products that we offer for food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals are as a minimum constructed of FDA approved materials for human consumption. Where more stringent approval is required, we also offer pumps certified to 3A and EHEDG.
