FUCHS has improved the packaging of its food-grade lubricant range, Cassida.
The benefits of using synthetic fluids and greases in food production machinery have been proven and documented, the company says. However, the risk of contamination from the incorrect use of application-specific lubricants can cost the food and beverage industries millions of dollars in expensive product recalls and irrevocable damage to brand reputations.
Misuse of lubricants in a food or beverage manufacturing environment due to human error can be common, even with good engineering and operational practices. The use of non-food-grade lubricants in these environments causes additional unnecessary risk.
The renewed packaging of the Cassida range of food-grade lubricants is designed to reduce the risk of contamination due to human error. A clean white appearance differentiates the range from other non-food-grade products.
The products are also colour-coded based on applications. Cassida grease cartridges and aerosols are colour-coded to ensure there is no cross-contamination, as users can rely on matching colours for different applications instead of only numbers and words.
According to FUCHS, this simplifies the process and can help eliminate human error.
