In the food industry – and particularly in the drinks industry – reliable lubricants are crucial to the efficiency of entire production lines. Filling plants, high-speed fillers and packaging systems operate continuously and are subject to the most stringent hygiene requirements. ELKALUB develops H1-certified speciality lubricants for these applications, which continue to function reliably even at high cycle rates, in damp environments and under thermal stress.
Our ELKALUB high-performance lubricants offer solutions for the entire food industry, as well as specialised lubricant concepts for the brewing industry and the pharmaceutical sector.
Whether it’s grease for high-speed fillers, lubricants for beverage filling lines or complete lubrication concepts for the process chain – our solutions meet the stringent NSF H1 requirements and prevent cross-contamination. In this way, they safeguard the quality of sensitive products such as water, soft drinks, milk and fruit juices. Purchasing managers and production managers benefit from predictable plant availability, reduced downtime and long-term operational reliability.

Manufacturers in the beverage industry face complex product safety requirements. ELKALUB Lubricants are specifically designed for these hygiene-sensitive areas. They prevent cross-contamination, withstand aggressive cleaning cycles, and help ensure compliance with international standards. From aseptic valves and CIP systems to pump and conveying systems – our H1-certified products ensure consistent process stability throughout.

Modern high-speed fillers achieve extremely high cycle rates. This places greater demands on lubricants: high resistance to centrifugal forces, thermal stability, and a long service life are essential. ELKALUB products reduce friction, minimize wear, and ensure trouble-free processes – from glass and PET lines to labeling and capping machines.
In addition to filling, many upstream and downstream steps depend on reliable lubricants:
Our lubricants perform reliably even at high temperatures, during intensive cleaning, and when exposed to chemicals.
Bottle cap manufacturers produce millions of units per day. Processes such as painting, printing, stamping, and deep drawing require durable, hygienic, and temperature-resistant lubricants.
