Detergents, acids and corrosives
BSC manufactures filling machines for detergents, bleach, acids and corrosives, with corrosion-resistant materials, anti-foam dosing nozzles for clean filling and fast format changeovers with automatic washing. It handles products that attack materials and foam when filled, from small containers to drums and IBCs.
Digital accuracy, versatility and more
We design and manufacture filling machines with digital flowmeters and an ultra-clean system. Their defining feature is high filling accuracy combined with versatility across containers and products: a single machine can fill several formats and handle very different liquids, with the shortest possible changeover and minimal washing requirements.
Electronic flowmeters remove the need for a storage tank: the product travels from a pump to the filling valve through closed piping that prevents oxidation.
The effectiveness of the system cuts product changeover and machine cleaning down to a few minutes. The hydraulic circuit does not need to be dismantled and the washing operation is controlled automatically.
Our filling valves are hydraulically designed with dosing nozzles that produce a turbulence-free jet and minimise foaming. The ultra-clean system fills accurately without the valve touching the container, eliminating any possibility of contamination. Its hydraulic design without dead zones also prevents bacterial growth.

Frequently asked questions
How do you prevent foam when filling detergents?+
The filling valves have dosing nozzles hydraulically designed to produce a laminar flow, which minimises foam build-up. The ultra-clean system also fills without the valve touching the container.
Which materials do you use for bleach and acids?+
Product-contact parts are selected for each application: PVC, titanium, Hastelloy, with EPDM, Viton or PTFE seals. The frame is AISI 304 or 316 stainless steel.
Can format and product be changed often?+
Yes. Format changeover is done by recipe, with no mechanical parts change in the valve, and washing between batches is automatic.
