Responsible business practices for the environment, health, and safety
Offering top-quality products and services. Adding value in numerous industries. At Van Meeuwen, we strive to add value in everything we do. That brings with it responsibilities and creates obligations.
That is why we are constantly looking ahead, immersing ourselves in new developments, and consciously scrutinizing our own way of working. Consider, for example, our focus on the environment and the health and safety of both our customers and our own employees. What is already going well? And where can we still improve?
We are actively involved in various industry organizations to stay up to date with the latest developments in the sectors in which we operate. We are driven by the ambition and conviction to help improve products and/or processes. Various external auditors visit us every year. This helps us to remain focused on the details.

At the individual and product level:
H1 registration
Our H1 food-safe lubricants are NSF or 2Probity registered. Both NSF and 2Probity are independent accredited parties, so it does not matter whether a product is registered by NSF or 2Probity. The most important thing is that the lubricant or cleaning agent is H1-registered for use in a production area where food safety must be guaranteed. They test whether the formulation of a food-safe lubricant complies with US FDA 21 CFR 1783570 regulations.
