Case Study; lowering maintenance costs and boosting production capacity in bakeries

Problem

In a bakery facing both a low availability of labor and increasing production demands, eliminating unnecessary downtime and maintenance is crucial. One area of concern was the rotary base of an oven, which required greasing on a weekly basis. This process consumed around 2 working hours each week, resulting in productivity loss and maintenance costs.

Solution

To address these issues, the bakery switched to Eurol Grease HY-2/102 FD HT with advanced Syngis Technology. This high-temperature grease extended the lubrication interval from a weekly cycle to an impressive four months. As a result, there was no downtime due to malfunctioning, significantly reducing maintenance efforts and increasing production capacity. For just this one oven, the annual savings in maintenance costs and increased productivity amounted to more than €5,000.

Eurol Grease HY-2/102 FD HT not only withstands high temperatures but is also NSF H1, Halal and Kosher approved, making it suitable for incidental food contact and ideal for use in food production facilities.

By utilizing innovative solutions like Eurol Specialty greases with Syngis Technology, bakeries and food production facilities can enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and maximize output.
