FDA Certified hoses and components don’t necessitate an FDA Certified assembly. Often companies assembling FDA hoses rely on the certification from the manufacturer but are not certified FDA assembly facilities. Foster Hose knows the need for a complete FDA compliant system. We have gone the extra mile and are one of a handful of FDA certified hose assembly centers.
