The Quantex Bag-In-Box (BiB) range of pumps is one of our most popular product options and is ideally suited for the Food and Beverage industry, especially when it comes to needing a pump that can suck highly viscous solutions such as melted chocolate, concentrated syrups, spreads, condiments and dairy products like milk, cream and yoghurt. By sealing the product within the pack and expelling it with the aid of a Quantex Bag-In-Box pump, the product remains contained, minimising any cross-contamination, wasted product, or mess, and reducing maintenance between pack changeovers.

As technology continues to advance, we can expect to see even more innovative applications of robotics and automated dispensing within the food and beverage industry. From fully automated kitchens to personalised dining experiences and consumer-controlled dosing, the possibilities are endless. By embracing automation and leveraging advanced technologies like Quantex pumps, businesses can stay ahead of the curve and deliver exceptional food, drinks and service.

We always like to start the new year by taking a moment to reflect on our last 12 months, and the learnings and knowledge we’d like to take with us into 2025. We call this the ‘Quantex Company Round-up’. Following on from the success of 2023, our focus in 2024 was to refine and further improve our services, products and delivery to heighten our positioning as game-changers in the pump technology market.

The role of liquid dosing in food and drink is vital for various reasons, such as enhancing the aesthetics, altering flavouring, conforming to health and safety, and creating product consistency. In this blog, we’ll explore how companies could be utilising liquid dosing and adding flavour and colourants to food and drink produce with the aid of a game-changing Quantex pump.

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.

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.

Quantex is proud to announce that it is working in partnership with PSG Biotech’s well-established pump brand, Quattroflow, to develop its growth within the biopharmaceutical industry. At the same time, Quantex also declares that it is not seeking any new pump solutions for medical market applications.

Viscosity is defined as the “interaction between the different molecules in a fluid – this can be also understood as friction between the molecules in the fluid” and can be measured with various types of viscometers and rheometers using the measurement of centipoise (cP). When creating produce for consumption, manufacturers need to understand the effect created by food and beverage viscosity, which can be affected by the conditions within which it's used, and are an important consideration when determining manufacturing methods.

Following our acquisition by PSG®, an operating company of Dover Corporation, our website has undergone some minor aesthetic changes to reflect our new ownership, alongside our Quantex pumps receiving a name-change. Whilst the game-changing pumps themselves remain the same high-quality that you’re used to, we listened to our customer’s feedback and created a new naming convention for our product portfolio.

At Quantex, we’re proud that our revolutionary pump technology is positively altering the liquid manufacturing process for the food and drink industry.

Quantex is excited to launch its new Low Flow Pump Range which combines all of the best features from our entire range of pumps and will replace both the LR-13 and AM-13..

100% recyclable, over 11% lighter with a self-regulating pressure safety feature.

Quantex Arc, Multiplex®, and Fresh Blends® were recently at BrauBeviale 2019 making smoothies, shakes, cold-brew coffees and juices using Quantex Bag In Box pumps

We visited NAFEM in Orlando last week and it was a fantastic show. Several of our global customers were showcasing their unique food and beverage dispensing machines.
