What are food industry knives?
Knives for the cutting and processing of food in industrial machinery: meat, poultry, fruit, vegetables and nuts. Unlike other industrial knives, they must meet specific requirements:
- Food safety
- Materials suitable for food contact
- High corrosion resistance
- Easy cleaning and disinfection
- Durability in demanding working environments
At Teco Knives we manufacture them combining cutting efficiency with compliance with the sector's health regulations.
Materials we work with:
We work with AISI 420 and AISI 440 stainless steel, suitable for food contact, which guarantees:
- High corrosion resistance
- Greater durability against moisture, cleaning and chemicals
- Hygienic, easy-to-clean surfaces
- Compliance with food safety
We apply heat and nitriding treatments that increase wear resistance and extend the knife's service life.
Food certifications and regulatory compliance
We manufacture according to quality standards and the European regulations applicable to the sector:
- European regulations on food-contact materials
- CE compliance in industrial machinery and components
- Processes with quality control and traceability
