Food Grade Lubricants for Air Compressors in the Food, Beverage, Pharmaceutical, and Cosmetic Industries
In industries like food, beverage, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, where oil-lubricated screw air compressors are used to power production processes, it's crucial to use lubricants that are certified safe for both products and consumers in case of oil contamination. Today, AVT will introduce a suitable lubricant for such air compressors.

That is food grade lubricant, ideal for air compressors in consumer goods industries like food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics, for the following main reasons:

Prevents Product Contamination
- Air compressors in the food industry are often used in filling, packaging, cleaning, and conveying systems.
- If there is an oil leak from the air compressor, food-grade oil will not be harmful to consumers if contaminated in a specified amount.
- Reduces the risk of contamination with potentially toxic chemicals.
Complies with Food Safety Standards
- Food-grade oils are certified by NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) such as H1, which means they can be used in areas where they may unintentionally come into contact with food.
- Complies with FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) regulations and GMP, HACCP standards.
Reduces the Chance of Legal Issues and Brand Damage
- If contamination occurs from non-food grade lubricants, it may lead to product recalls and damage to the brand's reputation.
- Reduces legal risks and health requirements of regulatory agencies.
Extends the Service Life of Air Compressors and Machinery
- Food-grade oils help reduce wear and tear and increase machine efficiency.
- Withstands high heat and pressure well, reducing the formation of deposits and corrosion.
Reduces Maintenance Costs
- Reduces the risk of oil changes and frequent cleaning of the air compressor system.
- Reduces production downtime due to contamination problems.

         Therefore, the use of food-grade oil in air compressors in the consumer goods industry is essential for consumer safety, compliance with international standards, and reduced long-term operating costs.
