HPS is the world’s leading specialist in liquid product recovery (‘pigging’) and liquid transfer systems for process industries.

HPS proven, innovative technology increases yields, cuts waste, speeds up changeovers, improves environmental sustainability and saves time and money.

By saving product instead of wasting it, HPS systems give a high return on investment year on year. It also delivers further gains from improved operational efficiency, faster changeovers, and lower waste disposal costs.

How It Works

HPS pigging systems propel a specially designed projectile (the pig) through process pipelines. This recovers the residual product that would usually be flushed to waste. This recovered product is perfectly usable, so can continue to be processed, packed or sold.  

HPS systems typically recover over 99% of product in a full pipeline. Exactly how much this is in terms of value depends on several factors (pipe length, diameter, product cost etc) but it’s nearly always significant. Meaning ROI and payback is rapid.

Unique Pig Design

The unique design of HPS pigs mean they are the benchmark of the industry. They’re bi-directional, and fully detectable, allowing full process automation. They do not contain solid magnets which can shatter or break, or fins which can allow product bypass and sometimes bend or tear.

Specially designed for hygienic environments, HPS pigs can also travel around 1.5D bends while still fully recovering product.

Process a Liquid? HPS Can Pig It!

HPS are the leaders in the industry. We employ only the very best people, with the right skills, attitudes and experience. Our pigging equipment is extremely high quality, but pigging is a specialist technology. So as well as the right equipment, it also needs the right experience to design, implement and set up successfully.

HPS has been in business since 1995. We’ve deployed thousands of pigging solutions throughout the world.  We can retro-fit to existing equipment or design for a new plant.  We work with most of the best-known brand names and have supplied systems for everything from sodas, wines and whiskies to sauces, dips, chocolate, pastes and ready meals.
