Fittings for the food & beverage sector meet the highest standards

Tierre Group produces fittings for “food & beverage” applications with the utmost care and in compliance with the highest quality standards. Fittings are small-size components, but they are extremely important in the design of safe and secure systems, intended to convey fluids in contact with food.
With respect to this, the choice of “Made in Italy” was fundamental. The production process of all the fittings manufactured on-site has been carefully designed to safely produce components intended to come into contact with food and drinking water.
The national and international certifications obtained by the Tierre Group do not derive from simply formalized procedures, they are the result of careful and continuous developments for the highest possible quality. A significant example: to avoid possible contamination, the lubricants used for assembly are suitable for contact with food, always, for each type of fitting produced, even for those fittings that are not related to the food industry.
The XVR range, made of stainless steel, the HFR range, made of brass with TEA + treatment, and the LFR range, made of brass with a very low lead content, have obtained the NSF certifications and are compliant for contact with food and drinking water according to national (DM 174) and European (EC 1935). Regulations. Guaranteeing high-level hygiene standards means taking people’s health seriously. To do this Tierre Group has involved all the players in the production chain, has carefully selected the construction materials and has implemented the traceability of every single element on a daily basis, whether it is produced internally or purchased, as in the case of some components.
