This document provides information about food grade lubricants. It defines food grade lubricants as lubricants used in food processing machinery where incidental contact with food may occur. Food grade lubricants must use base oils and additives approved by the FDA and USDA to prevent contamination. They are classified based on their use and potential for contact with food. The document discusses the regulations for food grade lubricants and gives an overview of common applications in food processing, pharmaceuticals, and other industries. It also provides product information for a company's line of food grade lubricants.

 Food grade lubricants protect and lubricate the
moving parts of machinery in manufacturing
processes where “incidental contact” between the
lubricant and food products may occur.
 Incidental contact is defined as 10 parts per
million (ppm).

 A food grade lubricant is similar to a
“conventional” lubricant in the following ways:
– Composed of a base stock and additives
– Provides the same functions

5. 5
 A food grade lubricant differs from a
“conventional” lubricant in these ways:
– The base stock is either white mineral oil or
synthetic
– All additives have been approved by the USDA as
food grade

 The main ingredient in most FG lubricants is white
mineral oil.
 White mineral oil on its own is a poor lubricant.

IT’S THE LAW!IT’S THE LAW!
 The U.S. Government has clearly laid out the
requirements for food processing.
 The governmental rules and regulations are
enforced by the NSF.
 There are severe penalties for non-compliance.

 The NSF has the right to inspect any food
processing plant at any time, often without notice.
 Failure to comply with lubricant regulations can
result in:
– Line shut down
– Plant closure
– Public exposure
– Costly law suits

 Food grade lubricants are federally regulated by the
FDA and USDA.
 The USDA no longer “pre-approves” food grade
lubricants, but the standards for food grade
products are still applicable and must be met by
food grade lubricant manufacturers.
 Food manufacturers bear the entire responsibility of
using properly approved food grade products.
Why Are Food Grade Lubricants Needed?Why Are Food Grade Lubricants Needed?

12. 12
 The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) lists the
rules published by the FDA.
 Specifically for FG lubricants, the CFR:
– Defines incidental contact
– Lists approved compounds for specific application
– Lists acceptable lubricant additives
– Defines lubricant classifications
