We’re delighted to celebrate that our sister brand Quattroflow, a PSG brand has successfully launched the first of a brand new line of ‘QB’ pumps based on our single-use rotary pump technology.

The use of refillable flavoured hot and cold drinks and the bulk-refill of liquid grocery products is on the rise with 60% of people in the UK carrying refillable drinks bottles compared to that of only 20% in 2012. In this piece, we’ll explore some key business benefits of refillable drinks and bulk-refill and how technology can be used to propel the movement even further.

At Quantex, we understand that dispensing highly-concentrated solutions can be very challenging. Higher concentrations often mean higher viscosity fluids, and most pump technologies struggle to transfer thicker liquids. However, product manufacturers are keen to reduce their carbon footprint and one way of doing this is to ship less water, which is not only good for the environment, but it also reduces costs in a number of ways.

We’re proud to announce that we’ve recently won the ‘Outstanding Achievement Award’ from the prestigious Food & Drink Matters publication. Following an exceptional year, Food & Drink Matters quoted that “Quantex pioneering technology is changing the game across multiple sectors”.

Quantex is excited to announce the official launch of its brand-new pump driver device, the Q-Drive-Alpha. Until now, Quantex has offered driver device equipment for evaluation purposes only, and these kits require separate tablet software to control, but the Q-Drive Alpha is an easy-to-use, CE marked, plug-and-play system, providing a stand-alone dispenser that can be used both for pump evaluation as well as for commercial use in production or laboratories.

Product viscosity is a very important consideration for any manufacturer or flow-control engineer who manages the dispense of thick, highly viscous liquids, but especially for those working with chocolate or confectionery-related products due to the unique and variable viscosity of chocolate.
