🍞 HAPPY WORLD BREAD DAY! 🍞

Today, we're celebrating one of the world's favourite staples and the processes that bring it from flour to finished loaf!

From mixing and forming to baking, conveying and packaging, there's a lot that goes on behind the scenes to keep the bakery industry running smoothly.

At Performance Fluids, we understand that reliable equipment and effective lubrication play an important role in keeping production lines operating efficiently. Our specialist lubrication solutions help support the equipment and processes that keep the bakery industry moving.

This World Bread Day, we're celebrating not just the bread we enjoy, but the people, machinery and expertise behind every loaf. 🥖

💚 World Mental Health Day at PFL 💚

Last week, we came together to celebrate World Mental Health Day with a breakfast sandwich from our local shop! 🥪

While enjoying our breakfast, we took a moment to reflect on the importance of looking after our mental health, checking in on one another and creating a workplace where everyone feels comfortable speaking up.

Sometimes, the simplest things can make the biggest difference. Whether it’s asking a colleague how they’re doing, taking the time to listen or offering a little support when someone needs it, we all have a part to play in looking after each other. 💚

Let’s keep the conversation going, not just on World Mental Health Day, but every day. Remember, it’s okay not to be okay, and a simple “Are you alright?” can mean more than you realise.

A big thank you to our directors for providing breakfast!

📦 Your corrugator doesn't stop. Your lubrication shouldn't either.

Corrugators operate at high speed and under demanding conditions, with multiple components working continuously to keep production moving.

The right lubrication can help:

🔹 Reduce friction and wear
🔹 Protect critical components
🔹 Manage heat
🔹 Reduce unplanned downtime
🔹 Support longer equipment life

From chains and bearings to gears and rollers, effective lubrication is an important part of keeping your corrugator running reliably.

The right lubricant. The right application. Reliable production.

♻️ World Food Loss and Waste Day | 29 September

Every day, food manufacturers work to produce more efficiently while minimising waste.

But when production equipment isn't performing as it should, even a small maintenance issue can lead to downtime, product loss and unnecessary waste.

Lubrication plays an important role in keeping food production equipment running reliably.

The right food-grade lubricant can help:

🔹 Reduce friction and wear
🔹 Protect critical components
🔹 Support reliable equipment performance
🔹 Reduce unplanned downtime
🔹 Keep production moving efficiently

From bakery equipment and conveyors to high-temperature ovens and processing machinery, effective lubrication is one part of a wider preventative maintenance strategy.

This World Food Loss and Waste Day, we're highlighting the role that good maintenance and reliable equipment can play in helping food manufacturers reduce avoidable waste. 🌱

Keep machinery moving. Keep production moving. Help reduce waste.

🔧 Is your pin chain telling you something?

Pin chains operating in demanding food and beverage applications can be exposed to high temperatures, continuous production and heavy operating conditions.

But how do you know when your lubrication regime may need attention?

Keep an eye out for:

🔥 Excessive heat – increased operating temperatures can indicate friction or inadequate lubrication.

⚙️ Chain stretching – excessive wear can contribute to chain elongation and increased maintenance requirements.

🛢️ Lubricant build-up – carbon deposits, sludge or excess lubricant can affect chain performance.

🔊 Increased noise – unusual noise can be an early indication of increased friction or wear.

⏱️ More frequent maintenance – if your chain is requiring increasingly frequent attention, it could be time to review your lubrication regime.

The right lubricant, applied correctly, can help reduce wear, maintain chain performance and support longer equipment life.

PerFluid® FG PC Plus is a specialist pin chain oil developed for high-temperature decorator pin chain applications.

🌊 Lubrication doesn’t stop underwater.

When equipment operates in demanding underwater environments, choosing the right lubricant becomes even more important.

From diving equipment to specialist underwater applications, lubricants may need to perform under conditions where oxygen compatibility, material compatibility and long-term performance are critical.

That’s where specialist lubrication can make a difference.

🔹 Specialist fluorinated lubrication

🔹 Oxygen-compatible applications

🔹 Designed for demanding environments

🔹 Suitable for specialist diving applications

PerFluoroLube is developed for applications where conventional lubricants may not be suitable.

Because even when you’re working underwater, moving components still need to keep moving. 🌊⚙️

🫧 Scuba Diving Safety Starts with the Right Lubricant 🤿

When diving equipment operates in high-pressure, oxygen-rich environments, there’s no room for compromise.

Performance Fluids supplies specialist oxygen-compatible lubricants designed to protect critical underwater equipment where reliability matters most.

Our PerFluoroLube® range is engineered for applications including:

🤿 Regulators
⚙️ Valves
💨 Rebreathers
🔧 Other critical life-support equipment

With the right lubricant, you can support equipment performance in some of the most demanding underwater environments.

✅ Resistant to extreme pressure & moisture
✅ Stable in high-purity oxygen environments
✅ Compatible with many plastics and non-metallic seals
✅ Designed to reduce equipment wear

🔥 Why BAM Certification Matters

When working with high-pressure oxygen, lubricant selection is critical.

Standard petroleum-based lubricants can present significant fire risks in oxygen service. Rapid gas pressurisation can generate heat through adiabatic compression, potentially causing ignition.

BAM-certified lubricants are tested for compatibility with oxygen applications, helping reduce these risks where high-pressure oxygen is involved.

Our BAM-rated PerFluoroLube® solutions provide an additional level of confidence for demanding applications, including nitrox and pure O₂ systems where the specific product rating and application requirements are met.

🌊 Dive with confidence. Choose oxygen safety by design.
