METAL DETECTABLE SILICONE

Custom Silicone Solutions by WHsilicone

In the food and beverage industry, ensuring product safety is paramount. One major concern is the potential contamination of processing equipment by by-products, which can compromise the integrity of the production line. Over time, conventional rubber seals may degrade under the harsh conditions of cleaning and sterilization, posing a risk of particles contaminating consumable products. To address this, regulatory bodies like the FDA have imposed stringent restrictions on the use of rubber and silicone in such facilities.

Metal Detectable Silicone from WHsilicone offers a tailored solution to this challenge. Designed to work seamlessly with detection equipment such as Inline X-Ray detection, metal detection, and magnetic separators, our products provide immediate alerts to potential contamination. This makes them an ideal choice for identifying eroding particles from deteriorating seals and other elastomeric components used in the processing line.

Our Metal Detectable Silicone is formulated using ingredients listed by the American Food & Drugs Administration (FDA) under the 21 CFR number 177-2600.

Should eroding particles from silicone seals find their way into the production line, our Metal Detectable Silicone ensures swift identification, allowing production to halt promptly and contaminated products to be removed.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:

  • Metal Detectable Seals
  • Joints & Strips for Sensitive Food, Beverage, and Pharmaceutical Applications

WHsilicone offers customizable Metal Detectable Silicone products in various shapes and sizes, tailored to your specific requirements. With low minimum orders, fast turnaround times, and manufacturing based in China, we ensure both quality and efficiency.

PLEASE NOTE: It is recommended to test all products in your environment to determine suitability and detection levels, as these may vary. While WHsilicone provides information in good faith, our products are not suitable for use in a microwave.
