Our Philosophy

Hygienic machine feet like the ZH and XH series are easy to clean, enabling the end-user to reduce the consumption of water and energy in the cleaning process to an absolute minimum - saving both time and money. Our certified hygienic design and patent protected products are the optimal choice for machinery that has to comply with strict hygiene requirements. Designed in accordance with USDA, EHEDG and 3-A design principles, the products secure easy access for cleaning and optimal conditions for food safety.

The environmental and financial aspects are important focus areas for our customers as well as NGI. We have considerably reduced our consumption of raw materials and energy in our production and distribution facilities.

Machines, equipment, and individual components have to be suited to the production environments in which they function. A dry production environment requires different machine feet than a wet production environment, which is different from the machine feet used in a clean room environment.

Our research and dialogue with customers/partners all over the world have also identified bearing houses and castors as weak points in many production facilities. They’re difficult to clean. They’re potential cross-contaminators. And they break down due to wear and tear.

Our new bearing houses are fitted with a patented waterproof sealing that blocks out dirt and bacteria, allows 3 degrees of misalignment, and can be equipped with a high-performance ceramic bearing. This waterproof construction extends the lifetime of the bearing by up to 10 times compared to bearing houses currently on the market. The new hygienic castors are easy to clean from all angles due to a one-sided fork housing design and smooth and drainable surfaces.

The hygienic bearing houses from NGI are the only bearing houses in the world certified by USDA, EHEDG, and 3-A standards. The hygienic castors are the only patented castors in the world following USDA, EHEDG, and 3-A design principles. Both products are designed for quick and easy installation as a plug n-play solution that can simply substitute current unhygienic components

To us, the compatibility principle is just as important as the load capacity and the right choice of material. This is one of the reasons why NGI has grown to be a world-leading supplier of hygienic components in the industries we serve.
