Vegan Machinery Lubricants Certified by The Vegan Society

Industry First for The Vegan Society

We have become the first lubricant and maintenance product manufacturer to be certified with The Vegan Society’s Vegan Trademark.

The registration will help vegan food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic manufacturers reinforce their vegan manufacturing credentials and demonstrate a commitment to quality throughout the supply chain by using vegan machine lubrication solutions.

We have secured this for the majority of the products in our FOODLUBE® and PUROL food safe lubrication ranges ensuring that our food grade products are made the way your customers deserve.

Certified supporters of vegan manufacturing

With more than 90% of vegans and vegetarians looking for vegan verification on the products they buy, we feel it is important to provide reassurance right the way down the vegan manufacturing production line.

Choosing vegan machine lubricants that display the Vegan Trademark adds another layer of transparency to your supply chain by confirming that your vegan manufacturing credentials extend beyond the ingredients used to make your products.

Keeping animal-derived ingredients out of the food chain

Food grade lubricants are now widely accepted, with products used across most food and drink production facilities as part of ongoing maintenance routines to reduce the risk of contamination.

Now, manufacturers are shifting their focus beyond food grade into specific areas such as Kosher and Halal, scrutinising the presence of allergens or certain raw materials in the oils and greases they use and, increasingly, looking for products that are suitable for use on vegan production lines.

For a plant-based plant

Once again we are leading the way in the food sector in food safe lubrication and manufacturing standards for machinery maintenance.

We registered our first NSF approved products in 2001, achieved ISO 21469 accreditation in 2010, added Halal certification in 2015 followed quickly by Kosher certification in 2017.

Now, The Vegan Trademark.

Looking beyond ingredients and selecting products for vegan manufacturing machinery maintenance that have The Vegan Trademark will help eliminate any doubt about the credentials of your vegan claims and give your products a competitive edge in the fast-growing free-from category.
