FOOD GRADE LUBRICANTS
In response to processors' concerns to maintain equipment that runs 24/7, and must be kept spotlesly clean, lubricant producers have developed food-grade lubricants and greases that are designed to withstand high-pressure water, cold and heat, while still protecting critical equipment. Ultimately, food-grade lubricants must meet quality assurance requirement of food processing industries to reduce the possibility of plant shutdowns.
Food-grade lubricants play a vital part of any HACCP plan. They protect expensive machinery from the constant stresses of mechanical "wear and tear". And they protect the consumer - only these compounds of base fluids/greases are HACCP is to identify critical hazards, food grade lubricants can eliminate potential risk in the manufacturing process. In fact, H-1/food-grade lubricants can now effectively handle every machinery-lubricants application at a food and beverage processing plant. And that means safer, simpler production.
