STERIFLOW

Autoclaves for sterilization, pasteurization and vacuum cooking for the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Steriflow designs and manufactures autoclaves for sterilization, pasteurization, and vacuum cooking, as well as complete heat treatment lines. Its product range covers autoclaves from 900 to 2,300 millimeters in diameter and with 1 to 12 baskets, for production capacities from a few hundred kilograms to several tens of tons per hour. It handles all packaging formats, including cans, jars, pouches, and trays, for both the food and pharmaceutical industries.

A French manufacturer for fifty years, the company developed its flagship process, the superheated water-fed autoclave, in the 1980s. It then expanded into rotary autoclaves and acquired the license for the Shaka agitation process. Its autoclaves are manufactured at the Barriquand site in Roanne, using the Platulaire welded plate heat exchanger without gaskets, specifically designed for the Steriflow process. The company relies on an engineering department, a laboratory staffed by a full-time technologist, and conducts tests on its clients' products and packaging.
