Introducing AWI’s Newest Hygienic Enclosure

Designed for Demanding Environments. Built on Decades of Expertise.

AWI Manufacturing is proud to introduce our newest Hygienic Enclosure—purpose-built for environments where sanitation, durability, and equipment protection are essential. This enclosure represents a natural evolution of our product line and reflects the same engineering excellence we’ve brought to the food and beverage industry for more than 55 years.

Last month, the enclosure completed its final certification testing in Chicago, including rigorous UL spray evaluations to confirm superior protection against water ingress. Meeting IP69K certification standards, it delivers a level of performance that exceeds traditional NEMA 4X enclosures and supports the harshest washdown conditions with confidence.


Designed With Hygiene at the Forefront

Every detail of this enclosure was engineered to support cleaner, safer, and more efficient operations. Key features include:

  • One-piece sanitary gasket for a secure, consistent seal
  • Custom-tooled hinges for durability and smooth operation
  • Sleek, hygienic design that minimizes harborage points
  • Stainless steel construction for long-term reliability

The result is a modern, high-performing solution that protects sensitive equipment while supporting strict sanitation protocols.


Built on Experience. Designed for Today’s Demands.

This enclosure is the product of intentional development, cross-team collaboration, and a commitment to meeting the evolving needs of hygienic processing facilities. With certification complete, we’re excited to offer a solution that combines proven durability with a forward-thinking, sanitary design.
