Industrial Trading Solutions Ltd (ITS)

Industrial Trading Solutions Ltd (ITS) sits at the point where hygienic manufacturing meets real-world reliability. In food and beverage plants, breweries, pharmaceutical facilities, dairy operations, and home care production sites, the difference between “it works” and “it works every shift, every day” often comes down to the quality of the components behind the process. ITS exists to make that difference predictable — supplying hygienic flow equipment and associated services that help manufacturers protect product integrity, maintain compliance, and keep production moving.

A partner for hygienic performance

Across modern hygienic industries, expectations have never been higher. Producers need equipment that supports repeatable cleaning regimes, minimises risk of contamination, and stands up to demanding duty cycles — all while keeping energy use, downtime, and total cost of ownership under control. From new-build projects to planned upgrades and urgent breakdown support, buyers are looking for more than a catalogue; they want a partner who understands process realities, can navigate specifications quickly, and can provide dependable lead times.

That’s where ITS adds value. With a focus on hygienic flow applications, the business supports customers with product selection, technical guidance, and supply solutions for the components that sit at the heart of many critical operations: pumps, valves, instrumentation, pipework and fittings, and the accessories that allow systems to run safely and efficiently. The aim is simple — to help customers specify and source the right equipment first time, and to back it with support that reduces friction across procurement, maintenance, and engineering teams.

Alfa Laval Master Distributor in the UK

A cornerstone of the ITS proposition is its Master Distributorship for Alfa Laval. In hygienic processing environments, Alfa Laval is widely recognised for engineered solutions that support performance, cleanliness, and operational uptime. Through this Master Distributor relationship, ITS is positioned to help customers access Alfa Laval’s hygienic equipment portfolio efficiently, with the benefit of a specialist distributor that can translate plant needs into the right technical choices.

For hygienic manufacturers, the stakes are clear: components are not isolated purchases. They determine cleanability, pressure and flow performance, safety, and how smoothly CIP (clean-in-place) regimes run. Working with Alfa Laval equipment via ITS enables customers to build or maintain systems that align with demanding production and hygiene requirements — whether the goal is improved throughput, reduced product loss, better energy efficiency, or a more robust cleaning standard.

In practice, the Master Distributorship approach means ITS can support projects and operational requirements with speed and clarity. Customers benefit from a partner who can help interpret specifications, identify the most suitable product options for the application, and coordinate supply in a way that supports maintenance schedules and project timelines. This becomes particularly valuable for engineering teams managing upgrades, replacements, or capacity improvements where the cost of delay is significant.

Products that support the whole process

ITS is built around a practical understanding of how hygienic systems behave on the factory floor. The company’s product scope is designed to support the full process chain — from raw material handling and blending, through heating and cooling stages, to packaging and transfer. That means providing equipment that aligns with hygienic design expectations while meeting the realities of pressure, temperature, viscosity, and cleaning regimes.

Typical requirements in these sectors include:

Pumps and pumping solutions suited to hygienic duty, designed to move product gently where needed, maintain consistent flow, and support efficient CIP cycles.
Valves and valve arrangements that enable safe isolation, reliable switching, and reduced risk of cross-contamination in multi-product environments.
Filtration systems and filter elements engineered to protect product quality and downstream equipment. From removing particulates and safeguarding sensitive process stages to supporting sterile or high-purity applications, hygienic filtration plays a critical role in maintaining consistency, compliance, and brand protection.
Hygienic pipework, fittings, and connections that support cleanable design, ease of maintenance, and long-term robustness.
Instrumentation and monitoring accessories that support visibility and control, enabling teams to maintain process stability and quality.
Pipetites – wall and sealing solutions provide hygienic, flexible seals where pipework passes through walls or ceilings. Designed for clean environments, they create a watertight, secure finish that prevents contamination, supports movement, and maintains compliance in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical facilities.

For engineering and maintenance teams, the value lies not only in brand quality but in matched selection — ensuring compatibility, appropriate material choices, and an installation approach that supports sanitation and serviceability.

Services that reduce downtime and risk

ITS supports customers with a service mindset that recognises the pressures on plant teams: urgent breakdowns, planned maintenance windows, product changeovers, compliance demands, and the constant need to justify spend with tangible value.

Key service principles include:

Technical support and specification guidance to help customers select the right products for the job, avoiding costly mis-specification.
Responsive supply and coordination aligned to maintenance and project timelines, supporting both planned and reactive needs.
Application-focused insight that considers cleanability, reliability, and process outcomes — not just component-level selection.

In hygienic environments, every improvement that reduces downtime, simplifies cleaning, or improves process repeatability becomes a competitive advantage. ITS supports customers in building that advantage.

Serving the industries that can’t compromise

Food and beverage and brewery operations rely on predictable flow and cleaning performance to protect brand reputation. Pharmaceutical and home care producers require disciplined hygiene, traceability, and system reliability. Dairy processors face the daily realities of temperature-sensitive product handling and strict sanitation. Across all these environments, “good enough” equipment creates hidden cost: premature wear, inconsistent process results, longer cleaning cycles, or avoidable downtime.

ITS exists for organisations that can’t compromise on those outcomes. By combining a hygienic focus, practical support, and the strength of Master Distributor relationships — including Alfa Laval and Pipetite — ITS helps global buyers access equipment and services that keep production safe, compliant, and efficient.

In a world where manufacturers are asked to do more with less — less time, less energy, less waste — the right flow equipment partner matters. ITS brings together trusted products, specialist knowledge, and responsive support to help plants run with confidence, day in and day out.
