Industrial Sectors - Food Grade Lubricants

 FUCHS supplies a range of premium quality machine shop lubricants.

Food Grade Lubricants

The use of USDA-H1 food grade lubricants is becoming more widespread in the UK, brought about by stricter food lubricant legislation, continuing health scares in the food industry and a greater awareness as to the efficiencies that USDA-H1 lubricants can offer.

The USDA-H1 standard is a sign that the lubricant is the best quality and purist food grade lubricant available, and is the accepted world wide standard for use in food processing plants and areas where cleanliness is of great importance.

Especially in food processing plants, the use of USDA-H1 food grade lubricants offers many benefits over standard industrial lubricants:

Synthetic base of the product means longer lubricant life and better life at higher temperatures
Less machine maintenance and downtime
Odourless and tasteless results in reduced product rejection rates because of unpleasant smells and tastes from the lubricant
Improved reputation with customers
Reduced insurance costs against lubricant system design faults or leaks
