WD-40 Specialist®: The Compliance Gap in Food Processing
WD-40 Specialist®: The Compliance Gap in Food Processing
<< BackFood processing plants face intense regulatory and audit pressure to prevent chemical contamination. Yet, anecdotal reports and documented enforcement actions suggest that non-compliant industrial penetrants may still be used in Zone 2 environments— areas where incidental contact with food is possible and where non-food-grade lubricants are prohibited. This misuse introduces avoidable contamination risks, violates U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regulations (21 CFR 178.3570), and contradicts Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) aligned chemical control expectations.
Modern NSF International / Nonfood Compounds Registration Program NSF H1-registered penetrants now offer performance comparable to many traditional industrial penetrants, eliminating the need for noncompliant substitutes. This white paper outlines the regulatory framework, risks associated with industrial penetrants, and the compliance-performance solution offered by WD-40 Specialist® Food-Grade Lubricant & Penetrant.
