| Rationale | FTI Air's FDA-compliant AODD pump lines (CFR21.177, EC 1935/2004/EC compliant, ATEX available on metallic models) list real named applications far beyond food/beverage: wine, vinegar, soy sauce, and fish oil, but also shampoo, glycerin, liquid soap, honey, ointments, fluoride, formaldehyde, dyes, toothpaste, and bath gel. This corrects a natural assumption that FDA-compliant equipment is only relevant to food-industry buyers - cosmetics, pharma-adjacent, and specialty chemical processors are equally in-scope and should be asked about FDA-compliant material options during intake, not just food/beverage customers. |
