ELGI Position Paper on MOSH and MOAH

Fragol

The topic of MOSH & MOAH frequently appears in public reporting in connection with food contamination. These substances can unintentionally migrate into food products, for example through recycled packaging materials or printing inks. Recently, the ELGI – European Lubricating Grease Institute – published a position paper on MOSH and MOAH in food-grade lubricants and greases.

Under the following link, which we are pleased to share with you, you will find a document that provides clear definitions, addresses analytical challenges, and answers frequently asked questions regarding MOSH (saturated mineral oil hydrocarbons) and MOAH (aromatic mineral oil hydrocarbons) in the context of food-grade lubricants and greases:
