May 6, 2025

CRC Industries, a global leader in the production of specialty chemicals for maintenance and repair professionals, has announced the launch of three new products to complement its broad offering of market-leading Food Grade lubricants, greases and cleaners. Designed to enhance operational efficiency and safety, the new additions underscore CRC's commitment to deliver NSF-certified, innovative solutions to the food processing industry. 

CRC Food Grade Bio-Based Power Lube® is the first bio-based lubricant on the market matching the durable characteristics typically provided by a synthetic formula, only this formula is a readily biodegradable, vegetable oil-based lubricant. Formulated for extended service under extreme temperature conditions and treated with antioxidants, extreme pressure, anti-wear, and anti-corrosion additives and fortified with ceramic powder, it provides superior lubrication and protection for heavy machinery and equipment in food processing environments. As an additional safety feature, the Perma-Lock® 2-Way Integrated Actuator is designed to prevent straw detachment from the can, reducing the risk of foreign object contamination. 

CRC Food Grade Bio-Based Power Lube® Grease offers excellent stability and resistance to water-washout, making it ideal for use in food processing applications where incidental food contact may occur. This readily biodegradable, vegetable oil-based grease is engineered to meet the extreme anti-wear characteristics of a synthetic formula in a bio-based package. It extends equipment life and reduces maintenance costs while meeting the highest food safety standards.

CRC Food Grade Sugar Dissolver is a powerful two-in-one solution designed to quickly dissolve sugar-based residues from processing equipment while leaving behind a light lubricant to help prevent future sugar buildup. This product also features the Perma-Lock® 2-Way Integrated Actuator, which offers wide or narrow spray pattern options while reducing the risk of foreign object contamination.

These new products are supported by the exclusive CRC Stoplight® Food Safety Program and Risk Reduction Partner ProgramTM, which address compliance challenges head-on so that manufacturers can pass audits and operate their businesses with confidence. All CRC Food Grade products feature a QR code on the packaging that leads directly to safety and allergen documents that apply to each product.
