To prevent contamination of pharmaceutical products, pharmaceutical companies must control the risk of lubricant use in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP). The lubricant products that Norbert Lubricants provides to the pharmaceutical industry are all registered and certified.
In GMP guidelines, risk control for lubricant contamination is a major focus, aimed at preventing any unsuitable substances from entering pharmaceutical products. In tablet presses, blister packaging machines, capsule filling equipment, autoclaves, or centrifuges, contact between drugs and auxiliary substances cannot be completely avoided. Therefore, risk control in pharmaceutical production includes all substances used in the manufacturing process—including lubricants used in pharmaceutical equipment.
Norbert has developed numerous specialty lubricants for the pharmaceutical industry that meet strict GMP standards and are NSF-certified as H1 food-grade lubricant products. Norbert operates a production facility compliant with the ISO 21469 international hygiene standard for manufacturing H1-grade lubricants, and all of its food-grade lubricant products are NSF-certified.
