Opinions on the use of fluoropolymer PTFE as a hose We process PTFE tubing and there are no equivalent alternatives to these fluoropolymers. PFA, MFA and FEP materials on the market cannot match PTFE in terms of chemical resistance and hose handling and durability. This has been proven by our handling as hoses and has proven to be of excellent quality without any objections or procedural issues raised by the customers. We process these hoses for the beverage, food and pharmaceutical industries where different media require very high hose materials. Therefore, as stated previously, we are gathering information to demonstrate that fluoropolymers are an exception and should not be banned. In fact, it takes many years of quality and design (PTFE) and there is no substitute for users of PTFE hose lines.
