Special lubricants for Food Industry

Special lubricants for the food industry—often referred to as food-grade lubricants—are crucial for reducing contamination risks while ensuring machinery efficiency. These lubricants are certified to be physiologically inert, tasteless, odorless, and safe for incidental contact. The primary classifications are H1 (incidental contact), H2 (no contact), and 3H (direct contact/release agents).

H1 lubricants are food grade lubricants used in the food and beverage industry. In this area, very special requirements are placed on the lubricating oils and greases used. In the manufacturing process of food and beverages, contact with the lubricants used can often not be avoided from a technical point of view. Thus, they must be safe to use.

Food-processing manufacturers face many challenges. One of the challenges is to avoid contamination of food products during manufacturing and meeting food safety requirements. In addition they need to maintain machine efficiency and productivity without sacrificing the performance of the machine. Therefore, we strongly recommend using NSF H1 lubricants in the food-processing plant.
