The PIG system from Perfinox offers an advanced solution for product recovery and pipeline cleaning. Originally used in the oil and gas sectors, this system is now being utilized in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. A PIG, or Pipeline Inspection Gadget, is inserted into the tubing to scrape the walls clean, effectively recovering product residues and reducing waste.
