Quantex News: General

As we near the end of 2023, it’s a time to reflect on how the year has been for all of us at Quantex and the changes and growth that have taken place. Much like 2022, it’s been another fruitful year with multiple opportunities for success and development.

We’re delighted to celebrate that our sister brand Quattroflow, a PSG brand has successfully launched the first of a brand new line of ‘QB’ pumps based on our single-use rotary pump technology.

The use of refillable flavoured hot and cold drinks and the bulk-refill of liquid grocery products is on the rise with 60% of people in the UK carrying refillable drinks bottles compared to that of only 20% in 2012. In this piece, we’ll explore some key business benefits of refillable drinks and bulk-refill and how technology can be used to propel the movement even further.

At Quantex, we understand that dispensing highly-concentrated solutions can be very challenging. Higher concentrations often mean higher viscosity fluids, and most pump technologies struggle to transfer thicker liquids. However, product manufacturers are keen to reduce their carbon footprint and one way of doing this is to ship less water, which is not only good for the environment, but it also reduces costs in a number of ways.

We’re proud to announce that we’ve recently won the ‘Outstanding Achievement Award’ from the prestigious Food & Drink Matters publication. Following an exceptional year, Food & Drink Matters quoted that “Quantex pioneering technology is changing the game across multiple sectors”.

Quantex is excited to announce the official launch of its brand-new pump driver device, the Q-Drive-Alpha. Until now, Quantex has offered driver device equipment for evaluation purposes only, and these kits require separate tablet software to control, but the Q-Drive Alpha is an easy-to-use, CE marked, plug-and-play system, providing a stand-alone dispenser that can be used both for pump evaluation as well as for commercial use in production or laboratories.

Product viscosity is a very important consideration for any manufacturer or flow-control engineer who manages the dispense of thick, highly viscous liquids, but especially for those working with chocolate or confectionery-related products due to the unique and variable viscosity of chocolate.

Quantex is proud to announce that it is working in partnership with PSG Biotech’s well-established pump brand, Quattroflow, to develop its growth within the biopharmaceutical industry. At the same time, Quantex also declares that it is not seeking any new pump solutions for medical market applications.

Viscosity is defined as the “interaction between the different molecules in a fluid – this can be also understood as friction between the molecules in the fluid” and can be measured with various types of viscometers and rheometers using the measurement of centipoise (cP). When creating produce for consumption, manufacturers need to understand the effect created by food and beverage viscosity, which can be affected by the conditions within which it's used, and are an important consideration when determining manufacturing methods.

As the year is coming to its close, we’ve been reflecting on what has been an exceptional year of change at Quantex. Change that has kept us busy, laying foundations for rapid growth in 2023 and beyond. With everything that’s evolved, we’ve learnt so much, and we wanted to share with you, our Quantex company 2022 round-up.

Following our acquisition by PSG®, an operating company of Dover Corporation, our website has undergone some minor aesthetic changes to reflect our new ownership, alongside our Quantex pumps receiving a name-change. Whilst the game-changing pumps themselves remain the same high-quality that you’re used to, we listened to our customer’s feedback and created a new naming convention for our product portfolio.

Due to new product expansion and Quantex growth, we have taken the important step to improve and evolve our manufacturing facilities by moving our Head Office to Duisburg, Germany.

At Quantex, we’re proud that our revolutionary pump technology is positively altering the liquid manufacturing process for the food and drink industry.
