Food Grade Lubricants

In food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and beverage production, equipment lubrication presents a unique challenge: the lubricant must protect machinery while posing zero risk if incidental contact with products occurs. That's where NSF H1-certified food grade lubricants come in—formulated with ingredients that meet strict international purity requirements.

Australian food and pharmaceutical manufacturers operate under rigorous FSANZ standards, with HACCP-based safety systems requiring careful control of all potential contamination sources—including lubricants. Using NSF H1-registered products provides documented compliance and peace of mind during audits.

For versatile protection across compressors, pumps, gearboxes, bearings, and hydraulic systems, POLY-GUARD FDA delivers exceptional anti-wear performance with Royal Purple's proprietary Purolec® additive technology. Available in ISO viscosity grades 32 through 460, it extends drain intervals while keeping equipment cleaner—reducing both maintenance costs and lubricant consumption.

Where mechanical seals require clean, stable barrier fluid, BARRIER FLUID FDA outperforms competitors with very low seal face temperatures and excellent heat transfer properties across an extremely wide temperature range.

For greased components in food processing environments, Royal Purple offers two NSF H1-certified options. ULTRA-PERFORMANCE CLEAR FDA GREASE is a colourless, non-staining, biodegradable aluminium complex grease—ideal where visibility of contamination matters. ULTRA-PERFORMANCE WHITE FDA GREASE provides the same exceptional water resistance and bacteriostatic protection in a traditional white formulation.

Both greases withstand frequent washdowns while protecting bearings, chains, slides, and conveyors against shock loads and metal-to-metal contact. Request a quote to discuss your facility's specific requirements.
