Solutions for Food and Medical
The food-grade lubricants (including food-grade greases, food-grade lubricating oil) developed by VNOVO for the food processing and beverage industries meet food production standards, ensure their safety, are odorless, and are certified to all relevant laws and standards. We recommend that food-grade greases and food-grade lubricating oil certified by NSF H1 be used throughout the production process of food and medical products to reduce the risk of food contamination and ensure the safety and quality of food and medicines.We can also customize lubricants to meet complex operating conditions to ensure smooth equipment installation and smooth, cost-effective operation.
The following is a list of some commonly used Vnovo food processing and medical lubricants. We also offer other oils and greases to meet a variety of application needs.
When selecting lubricants for food processing machinery and medical equipment, the primary considerations should be ensuring personnel safety and product compliance, while also taking into account equipment reliability and long-term operational efficiency. Key factors can be summarized into the following five aspects:
- Regulatory compliance and certification requirements
- Safety and cleanliness performance
- Material compatibility and seal reliability
- Operating condition adaptability and durability
- Lubrication performance and maintenance efficiency
Overall, the selection of lubricants for the food and medical industries requires a systematic balance between “regulatory compliance, safety, non-contamination, and stable and durable performance” to minimize the risk of food and pharmaceutical contamination.
Food Processing Equipment
Food processing equipment includes bearings, gears, chains, and sealing points that may face washdown, moisture, and incidental food-contact risk. Lubrication should combine food-grade compliance, water resistance, corrosion protection, wear control, and stable continuous operation.
Packaging & Logistics Equipment
Packaging and logistics equipment usually runs continuously and works near food packaging, conveying, and cartoning processes. Lubrication should address incidental contact risk, clean maintenance, wear protection, and low contamination to keep conveying, guiding, and transmission mechanisms stable.
Medical Equipment & Instruments
Lubrication for medical equipment and devices should be carefully matched to materials, cleanliness, low odor, low volatility, and motion stability. For applications involving patient contact, sterilization, or regulatory requirements, decisions should be based on application testing, compliance documents, and customer validation.
Rehabilitation & Care Equipment
Rehabilitation and care equipment requires long-term reliability, low noise, and easy maintenance. Bearings, folding mechanisms, adjustment structures, and brake-related parts in wheelchairs should use suitable lubrication to reduce wear and corrosion and maintain smooth operation.
