Home appliances

Household appliances play an important role in daily life, from storing food to washing clothes and dishes. Household appliance lubricants can help slow wear and tear and improve operation.

The home appliance industry is a large and heterogeneous sector, encompassing a range of products such as washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, and ovens but also small appliances such as small appliances i.e. microwave ovens, blenders. They operate under different environmental conditions such as the presence of steam, water, extreme temperatures, radiation and contact with food.

Choosing an appliance lubricant that can adapt to the specific needs of different applications can help extend their life, reduce maintenance costs, and prevent breakdowns and warranty recalls.

Appliance lubricants or appliance oils and greases must meet specific requirements, such as resistance to oxidation, corrosion and water, thermal stability and compatibility with materials used in devices. In addition, they must be safe for food use and comply with environmental regulations.
Even smaller appliances require lubrication; in fact, there are lubricants for small appliances that have the same characteristics as lubricants for large appliances.
