🔥 PRO TIP: Eliminating Oven Graphite! 🔥

Keeping your tunnel & tray oven running clean isn’t just maintenance — it’s performance. With the right lubrication approach, you can reduce buildup, extend chain life, and improve overall efficiency without the mess or downtime.

✔ NSF H1, Halal & Kosher certified
✔ Cleaner operation — no carbon/graphite buildup
✔ Improved energy efficiency (avg. 9% kWh savings)
✔ Extended chain & equipment life
✔ No mixing, no cool-down delays

💡 Less friction. Lower costs. Longer equipment life.

If you're running high-temp bakery or snack production lines, this is one of those small changes that delivers big operational impact.

At Kroger Bakery, switching to Performance Fluids’ PerFluoroLube CL1800F1 delivered real improvements:

✔️ Applied while equipment is running—no cooldown required

✔️ Longer lubrication cycles (now lasting 4–5 weeks)

✔️ Cleaner ovens, smoother tray movement, and more consistent performance

✔️ Less maintenance and improved energy efficiency

✔️ NSF H1, Halal, and Kosher certified

Why stick with messy, flammable graphite when a cleaner, safer, and more efficient solution is available?

🫧 Scuba Diving Safety Starts with the Right Lubricant 🤿

When diving equipment operates in high‑pressure, oxygen‑rich environments, there’s no room for compromise.

We are a world leader in oxygen‑compatible specialty lubricants, trusted globally to protect divers and critical underwater systems.

Our PerFluoroLube® range is engineered for reliability where it matters most—inside regulators, valves, rebreathers, and other life‑supporting equipment.

✅ Resistant to extreme pressure & moisture
✅ Stable in high‑purity oxygen environments
✅ Compatible with most plastics & non‑metallic seals
✅ Designed to reduce equipment wear and failure

🔥 Why BAM Certification Matters
BAM certification represents the gold standard for oxygen safety. BAM‑rated lubricants are proven safe for exposure to high‑pressure oxygen—where standard petroleum or silicone greases can become dangerously flammable.

During rapid gas pressurisation, non‑rated lubricants can ignite through adiabatic compression, leading to catastrophic regulator or valve failure.

BAM‑certified PerFluoroLube® products help eliminate this risk, supporting diver safety in nitrox and pure O₂ applications.

🌊 Dive with confidence. Choose oxygen safety by design.

📩 Contact us at [email protected] to learn more about our PerFluoroLube® solutions for scuba diving and their BAM ratings.

⚠️ Is Graphite Safe in Food Manufacturing?

Graphite is widely used in industrial lubrication—but in food processing environments, it brings serious risks that simply can’t be ignored.

🚫 Key concerns include:
• Food contamination from fine black particles
• Health risks from airborne dust exposure
• Fire and explosion hazards in enclosed spaces
• Difficult cleaning and hygiene challenges
• Regulatory compliance issues (HACCP, BRC, ISO)
• Long-term brand and reputational damage

Even small amounts of graphite can lead to product rejection, recalls, and loss of consumer trust.

🌍 On top of this, graphite production carries a heavy environmental impact—from mining damage to high carbon emissions.

✅ The bottom line: Graphite is not suitable for most food manufacturing environments.

Safer, food-grade certified alternatives—such as our CL1800F1—should always be used to protect your products, your people, and your brand.
