A&M Industrial strives to introduce you to solutions that provide unparalleled performance and prevent costly downtime. One industry that contends with high levels of risk is food manufacturing. From contamination, improper handling and recalls, there’s a lot of areas that can potentially cost a manufacturer thousands of dollars, and A&M wants to minimize that risk with the help of the LPS® DETEX® product line from ITW PRO Brands.
Food safety experts and federal agencies use the terms “extraneous” or “foreign” materials to describe things like metal fragments, rubber gaskets and bits of bugs that somehow make it into packaged goods.
“Extraneous materials” triggered nine recalls in 2022 of more than 477,000 pounds of food regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service — triple the number of recalls tied to food contaminated with toxic E. coli bacteria.…that’s potentially millions of dollars in lost revenues.
LPS® DETEX® is a complete line of maintenance solutions specifically designed for food processing facilities. Featuring a full line of lubricants, penetrants, electronic cleaners, greases, and specialty products, LPS® DETEX® can tackle a wide variety of maintenance tasks throughout food processing plants. NSF approved, LPS® DETEX® saves time and money by extending equipment life, reducing repair time, and lowering frequency of preventative maintenance all while food is in production.
And with the added benefit of DETEX® technology, these products feature blue plastic components that are metal and X-ray detectable should a part contaminate a process. The bright blue color also helps provide added visibility within the plant. This greatly helps reduce the risk of foreign object contamination that can result in contaminated product, facility downtime, delayed customer deliveries, and compromised brand reputation. The upgraded, slip-resistant can features bright blue, lithographed labels that won’t tear or smudge with NSF® ratings clearly marked across the top of the can - all visible from across the plant floor.
