Foreign particles in a product are not acceptable in many industry sectors. Up to now, it was practically impossible to trace gaskets and seals, or parts of them, in the product flow. That changes with DETECTABLE DESIGN. JACOB has succeeded in incorporating minuscule metallic particles in the compound that the gaskets or seals are made of. Even the smallest parts of the seals can be found and removed from the production flow.
DETECTABLE DESIGN is the security guarantee for your production.
Maximum security for your goods
DETECTABLE DESIGN offers manufacturers in the food industry or sectors with sensitive goods even more security. All products of the DETECTABLE DESIGN line can be traced with the help of commercially available metal detectors and meet the requirements of EG 1935/2004 and the FDA. Should sealing rings or parts of them accidentally get into your production process, for example during routine maintenance, they can be identified and removed immediately by a metal detector. The smallest metallic particles make non-metallic elements such as seals, rubber covers and expansion joints detectable.
