Lubrication for poultry waste and by-product processing
Poultry waste and by-product lines handle feathers, blood and fat under extremely wet, dirty and corrosive conditions. Equipment such as conveyors, pumps, chains and gearboxes often fails prematurely due to contamination, washdowns and heavy loads. Failures here increase downtime, disposal costs and hygiene risks.
Typical results
- 2–3× longer lifetime of chains and bearings in waste processing
- No routine gearbox oil changes → reduced downtime and cost
- Less lubricant washout and dripping → improved hygiene
- Proven performance in poultry by-product lines across Europe
Failures and Interflon solutions
Chains and conveyors (excluding dumper chains) – rust, stiff operation and frequent replacement in feather and fat lines.
→ Interflon Food Lube G150 is fortified with MicPol® technology. It provides light penetration into chain links and forms a durable, water-resistant film that withstands washdowns, blood and fat. Prevents corrosion and stiff movement and extends conveyor chain lifetime.
- Dumper chains – high load, contamination and water exposure.
→ Interflon Food Lube G220 can be used for heavy-duty dumper chains, especially when these are lubricated manually (aerosol or hand sprayer). It forms a durable, strongly adhesive lubrication film that withstands washdowns, prevents corrosion and reduces relubrication frequency. - Bearings – grease washout under continuous contact with blood, fat and water.
→ Interflon Food Grease HD2 for heavy-load and humid conditions, or Food Grease LT2 for cooler zones. Both are water- and shock-resistant, staying in place during washdowns and extending lifetime in conveyors, pumps and separators. - Gearboxes and pumps – leakage, overheating and frequent oil changes.
→ Interflon Food Grease HD00 or Interflon Food Lube G220: replace conventional oils in waste line gearboxes and pumps. Eliminate routine oil changes, reduce leakage and lower contamination risk. - Hygiene risks – dripping oil or contaminated grease in by-product streams, creating audit risks.
→ Interflon Metal Clean F, Interflon Degreaser EM30+ and Power Wipes: safely remove fat, grease and blood residues, supporting hygiene and audits.
All lubricants are PFAS-free and NSF H1 certified (Halal & Kosher). Cleaning products are PFAS-free and carry the appropriate NSF cleaner categories (e.g., A1/K1/K3). See product pages for the exact category.
