Food-grade certified suction cup for cheese wheel handling
The 8 250 SLBLEU F12 suction cup has been specially developed for the safe and efficient handling of heavy cheese wheels.
Designed to ensure a perfect grip for secure vacuum handling, it can lift loads up to 80 kg. Weighing 2180 g with its vulcanized stainless steel insert, it combines robustness, reliability and high performance for demanding food industry applications.
Food safety is more important than ever on production lines. The 8 250 SLBLEU F12 offers FDA and CE food compatibility, migration tests A, B and D2, as well as food-grade certification. NOVACOM also provides full traceability, from raw material sourcing to suction cup production batches. Due to the nature of the elastomer material used in our suction cups, they are inherently PFAS-free.
NOVACOM is currently the only company in Europe to offer suction cups with certified non-migration compliance and food certification

French industrial know-how
This product also reflects NOVACOM’s French industrial expertise. Our suction cups are manufactured in France, in our own production facility, with dedicated teams involved at every stage of the process, from elastomer injection to the cryogenic finishing of the suction cup.
This complete control of manufacturing ensures a high level of quality, consistency and responsiveness. Our raw materials are also fully sourced and traceable, thanks to close partnerships with European suppliers.
NOVACOM also relies on a dedicated technical team able to design suction cups according to each customer’s requirements and application constraints. This expertise allows us to develop tailored solutions for specific handling needs, including heavy-duty food applications.
To support customers efficiently in every market, NOVACOM also benefits from both a French sales team and an international sales team, particularly active in Spanish, German and Italian countries.
