Lubrication Solutions for Metal Food Packaging

Lubrication solutions for food-grade metal packaging manufacturers

At FUCHS, we understand the specific challenges faced by manufacturers of metal packaging for the food and beverage industry. Ensuring product safety, process reliability, and compliance with the most demanding standards is essential. That’s why we offer you access to a team of experts and a comprehensive range of food-grade lubrication solutions developed by our brands CASSIDA, RIVOLTA, and SUPERLA®. These solutions are designed to meet the technical and regulatory requirements of your production process and are backed by international certifications, decades of experience, and a strong commitment to quality and food safety.

Metal packaging offers numerous advantages over other packaging options:

  • Safety: its chemical inertness prevents interaction with the contents.
  • Lightweight: it weighs less than glass packaging.
  • Sustainability: it is easily recoverable and recyclable.
  • Consumer appeal: it can be manufactured in a wide variety of shapes and colors.

Common formats include beverage and food cans, capsules, cosmetic containers, aerosols, lids and caps, trays, food-grade drums, and more. The most commonly used materials are aluminum, tinplate, and stainless steel.

To support the safety and efficiency of metal packaging manufacturing processes, FUCHS has developed a range of food-grade lubrication solutions specifically for deep drawing, forming, and demoulding operations—key steps in the production of metal sheets and the shaping of the final container.
