PURITY* FG Food Machinery Grease with MICROL* is an advanced food grade lubricant specially formulated to deliver excellent performance and food grade purity under the highly demanding conditions of food processing operations. PURITY FG FM Grease with MICROL contains an antimicrobial preservative to protect the lubricant from deterioration, fouling and odour caused by microorganisms. This helps to maintain the lubricant in effective operating condition. MICROL is the first and only EPA registered antimicrobial preservative for lubricants with incidental food contact (EPA Reg. No. 82076-1). PURITY FG FM Grease with MICROL have the requiredindustry credentials and fit perfectly in HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) plans.
Superior Performance Benefits: Excellent resistance to lubricant breakdown in harsh operating environments
Maintains consistency and lubrication in the presence of food acids, juices and by-products
Does not run from bearings under steam cleaning
Highly resistant to water washout, water jet spray, and most sterilizing chemicals used in cleaning
Contains MICROL an antimicrobial preservative to inhibit product degradation
MICROL antimicrobial protection is now included in Petro-Canada’s PURITY FG FM Grease to provide continuous antimicrobial product protection
The Zone of Inhibition is the area surrounding the grease plug where there is no growth of microbes
The test was modeled after those performed in the pharmaceutical industry
The plug on the left shows a regular food grade machinery grease and the one on the right is PURITY FG Food Machinery Grease with MICROL
As demonstrated, the plug on the right shows a halo surrounding the plug which is the Zone of Inhibition
Food Industry Credentials and Environmental Registrations Fully approved for use in and around food processing areas, as indicated below:
MICROL antimicrobial preservative is registered with the U.S. EPA (No. 82076-1) for protection of the product from microbial degradation
MICROL and PURITY FG FM Grease with MICROL is registered with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency
Prevents bearing, gear and equipment damage in moist or wet operations
