Garlock Introduces GYLON® BIO-PRO PLUS™

Garlock Launches New Sanitary Gasket for Pharmaceutical, Bio-Processing, Dairy and Food and Beverage Industries

PALMYRA, N.Y. (April 26, 2016) – Garlock, a leading manufacturer of high- performance fluid sealing products, has launched the GYLON® BIO-PRO PLUS™ sanitary gasket, designed for the demanding process integrity and traceability needs of pharmaceutical and food and beverage manufacturers.

GYLON® BIO-PRO PLUS™, unveiled at the INTERPHEX trade show in New York City, is made from Garlock’s proprietary GYLON® Style 3522 modified polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material and features low surface energy to resist adhesion and cross-batch contamination. The translucent and colorless appearance, combined with ultra-low void content, also aids cleaning validation and visual inspection of critical processes.

With its 100 percent PTFE composition, GYLON® BIO-PRO PLUS™ exhibits class-leading material compliance, chemical compatibility, sealability, creep and cold flow characteristics, fulfilling ASME-BPE standards for dimensional consistency. These properties prevent buildup caused by gasket recession or intrusion in a hygienic coupling.

The GYLON® BIO-PRO PLUS™ is easy to install and performs in challenging and critical applications where clean-in-place (CIP) and sterilization-in-place (SIP) cycles may involve harsh cleaning media or sterilization procedures.

“Our GYLON® gasket products already enjoy broad acceptance in the pharmaceutical and food and beverage industries and exceed requirements for dimensional consistency even when materials and temperatures vary between batches,” said Stephen Doherty, Garlock global segment leader. “The GYLON BIO-PRO PLUS may be new and exciting, but it carries with it the material traceability that Garlock’s robust manufacturing and supply chain operation can confidently deliver.”
