Food and Pharma

In the food and pharmaceutical industries, using high-quality lubricants is crucial for maintaining product safety, equipment reliability, and compliance with strict hygiene standards. These sectors require specialized food-grade lubricants that are non-toxic, odorless, and meet regulatory approvals such as NSF H1. Premium lubricants help reduce wear, minimize downtime, and prevent contamination, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted production in environments where cleanliness and precision are non-negotiable.

Typical applications in food and pharma factories include mixers, conveyors, pumps, compressors, and packaging machinery. These facilities often operate in clean-room environments, exposed to washdowns, steam, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations. Quality lubricants in these settings must resist water washout, protect against corrosion, and perform consistently under pressure—all while maintaining safety for incidental contact with food or pharmaceutical products.

When quality matters

The use of lubricants in the food and pharmaceutical industries began to gain importance in the mid-20th century as manufacturing processes became more automated and regulated. Traditional industrial lubricants posed contamination risks, prompting the development of specialized food-grade lubricants that are non-toxic and compliant with strict hygiene and safety standards. Regulatory bodies like the FDA and NSF established guidelines for incidental contact, leading to the widespread adoption of H1-certified lubricants. Over the years, advancements in formulation have improved the performance, stability, and safety of these lubricants, making them essential in maintaining clean, efficient, and compliant production in modern food and pharmaceutical facilities.
