Filling of drinks
For environmental reasons, accidental oil contamination must be avoided during mixing, dispensing, bottling and packaging. Our lubricants are ISO 21469 certified and NSF H1 registered. In addition, they are resistant even to aggressive fruit acids.
Bakery and confectionary industry
CASSIDA greases are resistant to water and heat as well as to flour dust and sugar. The resistance to temperatures as high as 250oC and the stability of the grease determine the safety of the production process.
Dairy industry
CASSIDA’s high-performance lubricants are NSF H1-registered and meet the requirements for complete safety in their use, even in the event of accidental food contact – in accordance with the contamination limits set out in the FDA Guidelines.
Meat industry
Thousands of tonnes of meat and poultry are processed every year, which often come into direct contact with lubricant. The CASSIDA brand is not only certified for food safety, but also stands by halal and kosher principles.
Production of animal feed
CASSIDA lubricants with ISO 21469 and NSF H1 certification ensure safety wherever animal feed comes into contact with mechanical equipment. We support the feed industry in complying with hygiene requirements and minimising the risk of contamination.
Sealing of metal cans
High speed, high load, high humidity – CASSIDA lubricants prove their excellent quality even in humid working environments, in plants where cans are filled and closed. They protect equipment and machines from moisture and corrosion, optimise their productivity and reduce maintenance costs.
Food oil
From sterilisation to pressing, from extraction to packaging to the production of cooking oils. Lubricants have to meet high technical requirements and legal requirements for health protection. CASSIDA lubricants are ISO 21469 certified and NSF H1 registered. They are a safe alternative for production facilities.
