Disclaimer for content and advice
Advisory nature of content
The content on this microsite has been prepared with great care and is based on professional experience, recognised standards and continuously updated knowledge. The professional domain covered includes industrial hoses for critical environments — ATEX- and ESD-suitable hoses, food and pharma process hoses, high-temperature hoses, abrasive and chemical-resistant hoses, and custom-assembled hose solutions with couplings and fittings. The content is advisory in nature and cannot replace qualified technical or legal advice tailored to your specific installation, process or zone classification.
Specifically regarding hose selection in critical environments
Incorrect decisions about hose selection in critical environments can have serious consequences. In ATEX zones, insufficient electrical bonding can prevent reliable earthing and increase the risk of igniting combustible dusts or gases. In food and pharma processes, incorrect material choice can lead to migration, taste or odour transfer, or compromised hygienic performance. In chemical processes, insufficient material compatibility can degrade the hose and trigger leaks. The choice of hose, dimensioning, earthing and documentation is a responsibility that rests with the owner of the facility and the designated technical officer. We provide knowledge and recommendations that can form part of the decision basis, but the final assessment and formal approval must always be carried out by qualified professionals with knowledge of the specific installation.
Before decisions are made regarding the purchase, installation or operation of hoses in critical environments, we recommend obtaining documented material: the supplier’s technical datasheet, relevant certificates (ATEX 2014/34/EU, TRGS 727, FDA 21 CFR, EU 1935/2004 and others), and a specific risk assessment of the process.
Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, Particulair accepts no responsibility for decisions made solely on the basis of the content published here. Standards, directives and technical requirements are updated continuously, and we always recommend verifying current requirements with the relevant authorities, notified bodies or advisers before a decision is made.
The disclaimer above does not affect Particulair’s liability for the products we deliver. Hoses, couplings, fittings and other products are subject to the Danish Product Liability Act (consolidating Act no. 261 of 20 March 2007, as subsequently amended) and the rules of the Danish Sale of Goods Act on defects. These rights cannot be derogated from to the detriment of the buyer.
