Tritan: Our first extrusion of Tritan tubing was big in itself. It produced the largest Tritan tube in America to that point. The 5" OD x .250w tube was designed for a home-consumer company. Now we extrude Tritan up to 10" in diameter. Tritan is a monster tube. It has...

Besides solvent welding, there are several other methods to couple your Flares and Bells to our tubing. Many of our customers want to easily access sleeves and couplings for cleaning of the pneumatic line. Axial Slit and Hose Clamp: We simply provide four .125" axial...
Puck Conveying: Busada tubing has been long-known for excellence in pneumatic conveying of cups, containers, caps and such. Our butyrate line enters its 7th decade. We also supply a USFDA NSF 51 approved PETG (Provista) tube (UVO stabilized) and Tritan (tough as...
Going through our file cabinets last week, we came upon this vintage gem. The candy-stripe uniform dates the photograph between the mid-50’s to early 60’s; but the tubing is not dated. Today, cup manufacturers essentially use the same method of pneumatic conveying...
One of our customers had a need to color several hundred ft. of tubing for three pneumatic conveying lines. The lines travel overhead at the factory ceiling as a labyrinth of turns and curves. The plant manager wanted a way to easily view each line from the floor. We...
One of our cup manufacture customers got creative. Their factory was getting congested by an array of clear pneumatic tubing to the point where they could not visibly detect one cup line from the other. Their engineers wanted an easy way to distinguish the lines...
We received a beautiful panoramic virtual tour of the Roasting Plant's restaurant in Michigan. The engineering here is a work of art. We provide tubing and bends in a Provista PETG formula that is NSF-compliant and FDA-approved. Click this link for a beautiful...
In July we received a print to bend tubing for a trade-show coffee roaster display. We had two weeks to meet a deadline. We elected to make the bends out of a 3" OD butyrate tubing with a .125 wall. The bend radii were as tight as 8" CLR. Dry ice worked as the...
The Roasting Plant has just opened up a beautiful facility in Denver. We work with Advance Design Solutions to do our small part in this. We make the tubing and bends. The Roasting Plant uses cutting-edge technology in their stores, and the result is truly a mix of...
For top-of-the-line clarity in bends, nothing comes close to our Provista (PETG) line with monitored air packing. For clarity one has to control the packing material. This method was developed for a line of retail-coffee-house bends. Nothing is clearer, and this...
We have been making bends for The Roasting Plant as they build new and upgrade existing restaurants. They and their engineers from Advanced Design (FL) have tight tolerances and every bend is different. We extrude Provista tubing (PETG) and coat it with our ACS...
Provista (PETG) tubing, when properly extruded and polished is superior to cast acrylic in every way. When flame polished, it is spectacular for clarity. The picture above shows how a Provista tube shines when flame polished. This 6" OD tube, FDA approved and NSF...
We are delighted to be supplying The Roasting Place with its new line of Provista (PETG) tubing. Their design team has been searching for a more aesthetic and functional tube for their coffee-bean pneumatic transport. Provista UVO not only has FDA, but NSF compliance,...
