Stop Cross-Contamination at the Source with Hygienic Castors

Castors are often overlooked - but they can hide serious hygiene risks. Poor design in components like castors, belts, and drum motors can lead to cross-contamination, product recalls, and costly downtime.

If you build machines, this risk is closer than you think. Many end-users struggle with hygiene issues - even on new equipment - without realizing it.

Why choose a certified hygienic caster?

Hygienic Design

The new hygienic casters are designed with a one-sided fork housing allowing easy access for cleaning from all angles minimizing the accumulation of dirt and bacteria.

Food Safety

When you reduce dirt and bacteria you increase food safety. It's as simple as that. 

Water Usage

The design of the casters allows easy access for cleaning and minimizes the use of resources such as water and cleaning detergents.

Plug&Play

Installation of hygienically designed casters is both quick and easy. This makes the new hygienic NGI casters ideal for retrofit projects.

Innovation in motion: The most hygienic castor ever made.

Castors keep trolleys, tables, and machines moving - but standard designs are hard to clean and can become a hidden source of cross‑contamination.

Our new stainless-steel hygienic castors are engineered for use in hygiene-critical production.

Designed for cleanability

  • One‑sided fork housing for full access during cleaning—fewer shadow zones.
  • Smooth, drainable geometry with radiused edges or a 3° slope to prevent residue.
  • Integrated brake inside the fork housing—wheel and swivel lock occur internally, reducing dirt traps.

Why choose hygienic components?

Every component—no matter how small—contributes to strong, sustainable hygienic design. But weakness at any point can put the whole system at risk.

When you design systems with hygienic components, you can:

  • Increase yield
  • Boost efficiency
  • Improve performance
  • Maximize runtime
  • Streamline sanitation
  • Enhance food safety
  • Gain a competitive advantage
  • Simplify compliance
  • Enhance customer satisfaction

 

Hygiene is in every touchpoint


Certified hygienic components are a strong start, but true hygiene comes from a complete system approach. Every part of your production line and environment must be evaluated to eliminate weak points that could compromise cleanliness.
