NewAge Industries introduces phthalate-free Clearflo 70 tubing

By Heather Hall | January 22, 2020


New from plastic tubing manufacturer NewAge Industries is Clearflo 70 PVC tubing, a phthalate-free product. Clearflo 70 was developed in response to customers’ interest in fluid transfer products that do not contain leachable phthalates such as DEHP (Di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate) or BPA (bisphenol A). Some studies indicate that phthalates–chemicals used to make certain plastic materials more flexible and easier to process–may have a negative health impact.

“Our customers want to use the safest possible tubing in their processes,” stated Gregg Donovan, Product Marketing Manager. “Removing the threat of a potential health hazard on our end removes the worry from our customers and lets them focus on their products.”

In addition to being phthalate-free, features of Clearflo 70 tubing include:

  • The finished tubing meets USP Class VI requirements
  • Made from nontoxic ingredients conforming to FDA standards
  • NSF-51 (National Sanitation Foundation) listed for use with food equipment materials
  • Glass-like clarity lets users view fluid flow
  • Smooth surfaces for outstanding flow
  • Flexibility with light weight and abrasion resistance
  • Handles a variety of chemicals, gases, and liquids

NewAge stocks Clearflo 70 in fifty sizes ranging from 1/16 in. through 2 in. I.D.; larger sizes are available. The company also offers braid reinforced PVC hose for higher pressure usage, as well as fitting and clamps for attachment.
