IKV TRIBOLOGY LTD were sorry to hear about the death of PROFESSOR Peter Jost, who has died aged 95. He coined the term “tribology” (from the Greek word “tribo” – I rub) to describe the science of friction, wear, and lubrication – giving birth to a new engineering discipline – after which our company was named!

IKV TRIBOLOGY support the recommendations laid down by ISO / DIS 14159 advising use of only food grade lubricants in all applications on a food production site to avoid confusion or accidental contamination from non-food grade lubricants in the food processing environment.

IKV are pleased to announce the launch of their new WRAS Approved grease, IKV TRIBOSTAR SSI 1203 TF. It is based upon a high performance silicone oil incorporating an inorganic thickener to form a white/translucent grease/gel.
