Detectable products for the food industry
Why are detectable products and solutions important in the food industry? Detectable products, when used in conjunction with a detection device, ensure food safety during the production process. They protect the production process and the final product from foreign materials. With the help of metal and X-ray machines, detectable hygiene disposables, bandages, work materials, tools, and personal protective equipment are filtered out of the process. A useful machine in the food industry is a metal detector, which scans for metal particles in the process and filters them out.

Detectamet metal- and X-ray-detectable products
Detectamet’s professional metal- and X-ray-detectable hygienic work materials have been specially developed to prevent particles from tools, utensils, or personal protective equipment from ending up in the final product or in food.
Why detectable?
Within production processes and during food manufacturing, there is a risk of contamination by foreign objects. Small pieces of plastic or metal particles can enter the process and the final product unnoticed. The use of detectable products significantly reduces the risk of disposables, tools, or bandages entering the food chain. Metal and X-ray detectable products or particles thereof are detected during the process using detection systems. This is an extremely effective measure to minimize foreign objects in food and ensure food safety.
How does detectable work?
During the processing of food, ingredients, and raw materials, hygienic tools and materials certified for food contact are used. If an item is lost or damaged, a piece of it may end up in the production process. The chance of this being noticed is then very small. Detectable materials, on the other hand, can be detected in a timely manner. These items are made of metal or plastic containing minuscule detectable metal particles. When passing through an X-ray or metal detection system, the object is identified, and immediate action can be taken without significant loss of time or raw materials.
Preventing foreign objects in products
The most common foreign objects in food (physical hazards) that find their way into the food chain are pieces of glass, plastic, wood splinters, and metal particles. Contamination of the final product can have significant consequences in the form of recalls and health risks for consumers. Often, this is accompanied by high additional costs and damage to reputation.
By applying professional detectable products and protective measures, the risk of contamination is significantly reduced. Food products, ingredients, and raw materials are scanned during the production process using metal or X-ray detection systems. Detectable articles or their particles are detected and filtered out at an early stage.
