Houcheng Trading Strengthens Promotion of Food-Grade Lubricants to Safeguard Food Safety

Taipei, Taiwan — [2016 June]

With food safety issues drawing increasing public attention, Houcheng Trading has once again emphasized the importance of adopting food-grade lubricants in the food processing industry.

Looking back on the company’s long-term efforts, Houcheng has actively promoted food-grade lubricants at major food processing exhibitions in 2007, 2008, 2011, 2014, and 2015. As the first company in Taiwan to introduce the concept of food-grade lubricants, Houcheng has remained committed to advocating the correct use of oils in production lines, thereby protecting public health and ensuring safer food manufacturing environments.

Despite years of promotion, incidents involving the use of industrial-grade lubricants in food factories continue to be reported in the news. Even today, there are still manufacturers relying on non-food-grade oils in food production, raising concerns about potential external costs to society. “We have always stressed that preventing food safety crises in advance is the key to protecting not only consumers, but also the corporate reputation of food manufacturers,” a Houcheng spokesperson stated.

Food-grade lubricants provide multiple advantages:

• Compliance and Safety – Protect equipment while preventing cross-contamination, ensuring legal and responsible use on production lines.
• Air Compressor Oils – Should be food-grade to avoid oil vapor contamination.
• Gear Oils – Must be food-grade to prevent leakage into food products.
• Specialty Products – Houcheng distributes DENSOLINA RVTM, RVTH, food-grade baking pan oils, release agents, and white oils that comply with NSF 3H food-grade specifications.

Houcheng Trading continues to call on all food manufacturers to act proactively and adopt food-grade lubricants as part of their safety management systems. By doing so, companies can reduce risks, comply with international standards, and protect both consumers and their own long-term business sustainability.
