In accordance with the requirements of US 21 CFR 178.3570, contact with food should be avoided where possible. In the event of accidental contact with food, the concentration of the product should not exceed 10 ppm (10 mg/kg food). In locations and applications where local legislation does not specify maximum concentration limits, it is recommended not to exceed the 10 ppm limit of CASSIDA FLUID HF. Up to this concentration level, the undesirable taste, odour or colour of the lubricant is not transferred to food and has no adverse health effects. In accordance with the manufacture, use only the necessary amount of lubricant and take appropriate measures to prevent excessive contact of the lubricant with food.

Based on the available information, CASSIDA FLUID HF 32 does not pose any risk to human health and safety when used for the recommended application and the principles of occupational safety and hygiene are followed. As with all oils, prolonged and repeated contact of the lubricant with the skin should be avoided.

Handling and storage

All food grade lubricants should be stored separately from other lubricants, chemicals and food away from direct sunlight and other sources of heat. Suitable storage temperature is 0 to 40°C. For
these conditions, the product can be stored and used for 5 years from the date of manufacture in the original packaging intact. Once opened, the product must be consumed within 2 years.
