Products are registered under Category P1, H1 or H2 for Non food Compounds and Std 61 for Potable Water Approval.
This provides users with the security of rigorous third party assessment for the safety and compatibility of the products.
The NSF scheme covers materials used in and around food processing areas, which are not intended for direct food contact, or expected to become a component of a food product.
The range provides the busy maintenance engineer with all the high technology products required for the maintenance and repair of systems and machinery.
This can be as an emergency repair or as part of a scheduled preventative maintenance programme.
The comprehensive range includes low, medium and high strength threadlockers for securing threaded assemblies, pipe sealants and sealing tape for threaded fittings as well as high strength retaining products for cylindrical assemblies such as shafts, gears and pulleys.
There are instant adhesives for general use and structural adhesives for repairing metal, wood, ceramics and plastic parts.
Lubrication products include a mineral oil, silicone and mineral greases, anti-seize and low friction assembly pastes and coatings.
All are registered as suitable for use in and around food processing areas and are listed on the NSF website.
NSF International is an independent, non-profit making organisation that develops standards and provides third-party conformity assessment services for food and non food products used in the food industry.
The introduction of the new range from Henkel Loctite Adhesives enables maintenance and production engineers in the food industry, to repair and maintain a wide range of machinery, reducing downtime, production costs and wastage.
With the added benefit of NSF approval, the Loctite maintenance and repair range can be used with confidence, throughout the food industry.
