Engen launches foodgrade and agricultural lubricants

E ngen Petroleum Limited has launched a range of synthetic food grade lubricants: FoodPure which is designed to meet the specific needs of the bakery, butchery, packaging, beverage, pharmaceutical, sugar, cosmetic, and food processing industries.

This range has hydraulic fluids, gear oils, chains oils and sprays and compressor oils; all of which are NSF H1 certified, ISO 21469 certified as well as Halal and Kosher certified. These lubricants have the following properties:

• Reducing wear, friction, and corrosion.

• High load capacity

• Optimal performance under high temperature and wide operating temperature range

• Extreme Pressure properties

“Our product range extends the lifespan of equipment and guarantees the highest certifications for safety and quality,” said

Tariq Ahmed, Engen Product Manager, Industrial Technical Advisory. “A major benefit is that there is no need to secure multiple products for each category of equipment which saves time and effort. As a non-contaminant lubricant provider, our product range reduces Health, Safety, Environment and Quality (HSEQ) risks such as spoilt products and recalls, in addition to providing all the necessary reputational assurance that one would expect from a leading provider,” added Ahmed.

This was followed by another launch of an engine oil: Dieselube 700 Super designed for the agricultural sector specifically for the Southern and Sub-Saharan Africa markets.

Engen Dieselube 700 Super ensures good control over soot, induced wear, high temperature piston deposits, bore polishing, corrosion, foaming, oxidation stability and ensures superior engine cleanliness at extended drain intervals; thus, reducing the total cost of ownership.

“The new Engen Dieselube 700 Super is custom engineered to deliver durability in the tough African climate, with the added benefit of extending service intervals. We understand that farmers face tough challenges every single day including but not limited to harsh weather conditions, price fluctuation, and stiffcompetition; which is why we are committed to making life easier for our agricultural partners. To help achieve this, our technologically advanced products have been developed to provide the best protection for farming equipment to help increase productivity and reduce costs,” said Sharveen Maharaj, Engen’s Head of Lubricants. .
