FOOD AND BEVERAGE PIGGING SYSTEMS
Recover Up to 99.5% of Product from Process Pipelines
Reduce product waste, improve yields, speed up changeovers, and cut cleaning-related losses with hygienic pigging systems designed for food and beverage manufacturing.
HPS product recovery systems help recover valuable liquid and semi-liquid product from pipelines before flushing, cleaning, CIP, or product changeovers.
Ideal for: sauces, dairy, chocolate, syrups, beverages, condiments, oils, juices, soups, creams, and other liquid or viscous food products.
- Recover up to 99.5% of product from full pipelines
- Faster product and batch changeovers
- Reduced waste, rinse water, and CIP losses

Product Recovery for Food and Beverage Processing Plants
During production, liquid product can remain in process pipelines after transfer. If it is not recovered, this product is often lost during flushing, cleaning, or product changeovers.
HPS pigging systems recover this residual product from the pipeline before cleaning begins. This helps manufacturers save more saleable product, reduce waste, and use less rinse water and cleaning chemicals between production runs.
Key Benefits
- Recover more saleable product from pipelines
- Reduce waste during product changeovers
- Speed up batch and product changeovers
- Use less rinse water and cleaning chemicals
- Reduce product losses during CIP
- Lower cross-contamination risk between runs
- Improve line efficiency and production capacity
- Support waste reduction and sustainability targets
Common Food and Beverage Processing Challenges We Help Solve
From product loss and long changeovers to high water usage and contamination risks, HPS pigging systems help manufacturers improve efficiency across hygienic liquid processing lines.
