Overview
PROTECTING THE FLAVOR OF BEER & WINE: The next step in flavor protection: GEN-X® Tubing
Micro Matic, the industry leader introduces the next generation of beverage tubing. GEN—X® is engineered to have an exceptional gas barrier layer along with outstanding hygienic quality. Independent testing and in—field performance have found GEN—X® superior. Nylon was selected as the inner layer due to its ultra—smooth surface. A barrier layer is co—extruded within the tube wall to stop gas permeation and preserve the beverage aroma and flavor. GEN—X® is ideal for protection against cross migration of flavors.
GEN—X® ensures no loss of CO2 from the beer or wine and practically eliminates any O2 ingress into the beverage tube that could promote bacteria growth and off—taste.
