Original Material "S" plus+® FP [FS]® is a new technical plastic that completely meets the requirements of the food sector for the detectability of plastic foreign bodies in foods.
"FP" stands for "food protect" and embodies two vital properties: This product is both food-safe and metal-detectable. Metallic foreign bodies in foods are safety detected by metal detectors and removed. However, plastic particles from plant components can be problematic. Thanks to the use of additives in Original Material "S" plus+® FP [FS], all commonly used metal detectors in the food industry can now detect and remove plastic particles.
Furthermore, in the case of this material, particles even smaller than the required size for the detectability of metal (3 mm) can be found and removed: Particles of only 2mm in size (see the illustration) have been detected without any problems in tests.

Special characteristics

  • Metal-detectable in all commonly used industrial detectors
  • Approved for use in the food industry (EU and FDA)
  • Very good wear and abrasion resistance
  • Extremely good machinability
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Increased continuous use temperature of 100°

Usage information

The detection capability of Original Material "S" plus+® FP [FS]® is determined by the "product effect" of the products to be tested and the sensitivity of the detector. As a precise adjustment of your detector is required, we will be happy to send you test samples of our Original Material "S" plus+® FP [FS]®.
