Several factors play a role in this process, and one of the main ones is the use of H1-certified food-grade lubricants.
Given the variety of production lines finding the ideal lubricants for each application, and ensuring ideal inventory consolidation was a challenge for Petro-Canada, which performed a thorough plant analysis and converted the entire plant to an integrated PURITY FG lubricant line.
”"Previously we had an inventory of 60 lubricants for the food industry and used eight different suppliers Today we have only one supplier, Petro-Canada, and our inventory has been reduced to 12 PURITY FG lubricants."

Applications include gearboxes, hydraulic components, presses, pumps, bearings, pallet lifts and mixers.
