Hitma and Aflex team up to bring innovative hose assemblies to the (bio)pharmaceutical market

Hitma proudly announces a new partnership with Aflex, the global leader in high-quality flexible PTFE hoses. Through this collaboration, Hitma becomes the official distributor of Aflex technology in the Benelux region.

With Aflex’s innovative PTFE liner technology, companies in the biopharmaceutical industry can further improve the safety and efficiency of their critical processes. The patented liner design ensures that the hose maintains a perfectly smooth and circular bore without distortion, enabling a reliable and consistent fluid flow.

Aflex hose assemblies are designed for demanding applications where chemical resistance, hygiene and reliability are essential. The PTFE lining provides excellent resistance to aggressive chemicals, high temperatures and pressure. The smooth bore minimizes turbulence, ensuring efficient and controlled fluid transfer.

Key advantages of Aflex hose assemblies
• Excellent chemical resistance thanks to PTFE lining
• Highly flexible and kink-resistant
• Minimal turbulence and optimal flow performance
• Available with natural or anti-static PTFE liner
• No adhesives used in manufacturing, eliminating contamination risks

According to Hitma’s Sales Manager Rob Mijnsbergen, the partnership marks an important step:
“Where we previously supplied silicone tubing, this partnership now allows us to offer the highest quality PTFE hoses as well. This enables us to provide complete solutions for processes involving aggressive chemicals, high temperatures, repeated CIP/SIP cleaning and applications requiring very low permeation.”

With this partnership, Hitma further strengthens its position as a supplier of reliable solutions for critical processes in the biopharmaceutical industry.
