Ugly is only skin deep with pumps and valves in food and beverage production. Gunmetal gray and stainless steel skins are the predominant color offerings.

A premium also is placed on sanitary design, and the makers of pumps and valves are being nudged to meet and often exceed standards such as 3A.
