NewAge® Industries Introduces Clearflo® Ag-47 Antimicrobial PVC Tubing with Silver Ion Technology
Inhibits Bacteria Growth & Their Ill Effects
Southampton, Pa. — New from tubing manufacturer NewAge Industries is Clearflo Ag-47 antimicrobial tubing. Suitable for a variety of fluid transfer applications, Clearflo Ag-47 is designed to protect liquids from harmful bacteria that can result in taste transfer, odors and illnesses. Applications that can benefit from Clearflo Ag-47’s antimicrobial technology include food processing and delivery, beverage transfer (including dairy and those containing alcohol), water lines, laboratory uses, medical devices and other clean fluid transfer processes.
Clearflo Ag-47 is manufactured from a clear, flexible PVC compound that is free of phthalates.

The Silver Ion ingredient is throughout the tubing, not only on the interior as with similar products, for bacteria protection on all tubing surfaces.
