The printing and paper industry is dominated by large, technically sophisticated machines and systems that typically operate continuously for many years: offset printing machines, flexographic printing machines, and gravure printing machines, as well as systems for the production of paper, cardboard, and corrugated cardboard. ELKALUB lubricants keep these machines running and are also suitable for the production of food and pharmaceutical packaging.

Due to the size of the machines, there is a vast array of machine components - such as bearings, gearboxes, chains, guides, and hinges - all of which are used under a wide variety of conditions (heat, water, dust, pressure, radiation, chemicals) and require proper lubrication.
The specialists at ELKALUB are ideally equipped to handle these lubrication tasks, as they can draw on a wide range of industrial lubricants developed in-house. For applications in the food or pharmaceutical sectors, an equally extensive selection of NSF H1-registered ELKALUB lubricants is available.
And should a standard product not suffice: Since all ELKALUB lubricants are developed and produced in our own laboratories, we can also provide custom-formulated and customer-specific specialty lubricants upon request.
More than 40 years of collaboration with printing press manufacturers and frequent visits to printing plants have led to the development of specialized lubricating oils, greases, and sprays. These products are used for initial lubrication and are either required or recommended for operation.
The ELKALUB Journal spoke with Christof Bromberger, managing director of Bromberger Packungen, about his experiences with ELKALUB’s H1 lubricants. Read the customer story.
For the first time, a Komori Lithrone GX40 from ELKALUB was equipped with special lubricants for printing food packaging. Read the news article.
