Taylor Business Strategies, Inc. (TBSI) supports manufacturers in the food-grade sector by providing fabrication and sourcing services with a focus on quality, cleanliness, and consistency. The company works closely with clients involved in food processing, packaging, and commercial food equipment, helping them meet strict hygiene and material standards required throughout the industry.
With a background serving high-spec markets—including medical, aerospace, and industrial automation—TBSI applies the same level of precision and control to food-grade components. This experience translates into reliable solutions for applications where surface finish, material traceability, and dimensional accuracy are critical. Whether producing sanitary fittings, structural frames, or custom-machined parts, TBSI helps food equipment manufacturers maintain compliance and performance from prototyping through full-scale production.
By combining advanced manufacturing capabilities with a well-established supplier network, TBSI serves as a sourcing partner, offering flexibility and support across a wide range of food-related applications.
Understanding Food-Grade Manufacturing Needs
The food industry requires components that support clean operation and resist contamination. Materials must be safe for contact or proximity to food, surfaces must be smooth and easy to sanitize, and part construction must allow for frequent washdowns without degrading. Whether direct or indirect contact is involved, reliability and cleanability remain a top concern.
TBSI offers precision CNC machining services for stainless steel and food-safe plastic parts used in food-grade equipment. These services are ideal for producing sanitary fittings, valve housings, and precision brackets with strict tolerances. Each part is machined to customer specifications with the accuracy required for sealed or hygienic systems.
Tube fabrication is critical for clean piping and transfer systems used in food production. TBSI handles cutting, forming, and welding of stainless tubing to support conveyor frames, product delivery lines, and fluid handling systems. Care is taken to maintain clean internal surfaces, essential for sanitary design and clean-in-place (CIP) maintenance. With expertise in tube fabrication, TBSI guarantees that parts integrate smoothly into complex assemblies.
Broader CNC machining services are also available for producing structural and functional parts that support food machinery. Common parts include mounting plates, spacers, guards, and custom brackets. These are often machined from materials that stand up to washdowns, temperature variation, and cleaning agents. TBSI’s CNC machining services meet tight tolerances and repeatable quality for long-term reliability in food processing environments.
In addition to machining and tube work, TBSI offers welding, light assembly, and forming services. These capabilities allow for the completion of subassemblies or ready-to-install components, minimizing the need for multiple suppliers. This integration simplifies purchasing and quality tracking for food equipment manufacturers.
Material Expertise and Compliance
TBSI works with materials that meet industry expectations, such as 304 and 316 stainless steel, FDA-compliant plastics, and finishes that support sanitary performance. These materials are often used across the company’s precision CNC machining services and tube fabrication projects, ensuring the finished components align with sanitary design principles. Projects can be aligned with client specifications or general food safety frameworks such as 3-A, USDA, or NSF requirements.
Industries and Applications Served
TBSI supports a range of applications within the food-grade market, including:
- Food processing and packaging machinery
- Dairy and beverage equipment
- Sanitary piping and support structures
- Commercial kitchen systems
- Bottling and material handling systems
Each of these areas often requires components made through precision CNC machining services, as well as clean and consistent tube fabrication for sanitary integration.
