Sustainable production and packaging

Since 2018, we have been increasingly focussing on sustainability in production and products. As a result, we are now able to specify the CO2 footprint of our iglidur plain bearings in the shop. There are also new linear bearings, plain bearings, and a new energy chain made of recycled material from our own production.

 New 2022  ECO plain bearing product range made from regranulate

  • Our ECO plain bearings consist of up to 100% regranulates from proven and tested top materials
  • E.g. the particularly cost-effective iglidur ECO A180 all-rounder plain bearing
  • Or the iglidur ECO P plain bearing for use in high humidity
  • And other products ...

Automated solutions and digital transformation

We deal intensively with topics related to digital transformation. We are presenting our smart plastics - i.e. our products in conjunction with intelligent sensors, which enable condition monitoring or predictive maintenance, for example, in a completely new online shop. We also combined numerous functions, such as the dashboard, the display of status reports or the alarm and message overview, in a new smart plastics customer portal.

 New 2022  Condition monitoring in the i.sense online shop

  • Unplanned plant downtimes can now be prevented with just a few clicks
  • The i.Sense online shop is supplemented by ready-to-install systems for condition monitoring
  • Completely configure push/pull force monitoring and break detection and view prices

Resource conservation and food compliance

Thanks to incorporated solid lubricants, our bearing products are completely free of lubricants. Water lubrication can be avoided and resources saved. And absence of lubricants also qualifies the products for direct and indirect contact with food. Find out more about our hygienic design products here.

 New 2022  Efficient cleaning: Linear technology in hygienic design

  • FDA-compliant drylin linear bearings for easy and efficient cleaning
  • FDA/EU 10/2011-compliant liners made of iglidur A160 are used for this purpose
  • 100% corrosion-free, lubrication-free and maintenance-free due to incorporated solid lubricants
