As a market leader in lubricated fasteners, we are proud to announce that we are the first to certify that our product complies with the strictest requirements of the Drinking Water Directive (DWD).

Access to clean and safe drinking water is a fundamental human right, and ensuring the quality of materials that come into contact with drinking water is crucial. The DWD plays a vital role in establishing the standards for products in contact with drinking water.

After extensive testing, our lubricant has met the strict requirements and is now officially certified for safe use in drinking water environments under European standards. This means our product meets all composition and migration limits to protect water quality and human health.

Peter de Bruine, CEO: “Our products offer more than just technical solutions; they provide the assurance that people can rely on clean, safe drinking water. I am proud of this, and it motivates us every day to continue innovating.”
