Product Announcement from Quadrant Engineering Plastic Products
Quadrant offers metal detectable engineering plastics for Food and Dairy Production.
Industry Concerns
The foremost goal in the food and beverage production & packaging industry is to deliver high quality, healthy and safe products.
A highly regulated market where not meeting international standards can quickly become a major threat to the business, a product recall could turn into the worst case scenario for a producer. At the same time, market dynamics force a continuous cost and productivity improvement.
Producers need to prevent contamination of food caused by e.g. breakage or wear of equipment parts, using predominantly metal detectors.
Replacing equipment parts with engineering plastics can improve production speed or extend productive cycles of machines due to reduced downtime significantly.
The growing demand for polymer materials as a replacement of metal parts presents strong demand for new and improved, metal detectable plastics.
Quadrant Answers
Quadrant developed a range of traceable polymer materials, which offer superior properties compared to metal or existing plastics.
The manufacturer will be able to choose from a range of products based on the application and the most critical material quality.
Key material qualities:
Improved impact resistance resulting in less breakage of highly stressed plastic parts inproduction and process equipment
Material additives allow detection of very small (27 mm3 and bigger) particles via metal detectors addressing the remaining risk of occurring breakage or wear
Key Benefits
Improved safety supported by according to FDA and EU standards food contact compliantand metal detectable plastic materials
Reduced contamination of food, resulting in less related costs and reduced financial and image risk
Longer productive periods and lower maintenance costs
