Understand how metal detectable seals work to keep product quality under control.
When it comes to hygienic processing, preventing contamination in pipework is essential! By choosing a metal detectable seal, users actively reduce the risk of contamination, cut down on costly recalls and downtime, and avoid quality control issues. Our seals help customers maintain clean product lines and meet high hygiene standards.
How do metal detectable seals work?
Standard seals can degrade over time, potentially breaking down and contaminating product lines. Our EPDM metal detectable seals contain detectable compounds, so metal detectors can quickly identify them. If a seal breaks down, the detectors spot even the smallest pieces and remove contaminated products before they reach customers.

The benefits of metal detectable seals.
- Increased product safety – The seals prevent contamination, reducing the risk of product recalls.
- Quick detection & removal – Metal detectors can identify the smallest seal fragments!
- Reduced downtime – By detecting seal fragments early, our customers can prevent widespread contamination and reduce product delays.
- Long-term cost savings – While these seals may have a slightly higher upfront cost, they reduce the risk of recalls, downtime and contamination-related product losses. This makes them a cost effective investment in the long run.
