Gough Engineering Ltd – Metal Detectable Plastic Buckets

A new range of buckets that are made from metal detectable plastic has been introduced by a Stoke- on-Trent engineering company.

Gough Engineering Ltd has manufactured materials handling equipment for the Foods industry for over seventy years and with the increasing levels of hygienic regulations, food processors need to take every precaution available to ensure product integrity.

The plastic buckets used in elevators are in direct contact with food prior to packaging, if those buckets become damaged in any way, fragments can contaminate the process. As a result, a requirement has arisen that all plastic parts which could come into contact with food are both detectable, as well as food-contact approved. The metal detectable plastic will help food manufacturers with strict hygiene regulations and can help prevent costly recalls of contaminated food.

The newly introduced Gough metal detectable plastic buckets are made from weakly-magnetic, impact-resisting compounds, which are reliably detectable by already existing apparatus, widely used in the food-processing industry. Contaminated food can be automatically and reliably rejected, even when the foreign particles are only millimetres in size.

The newly developed plastic buckets are FDA approved for direct food contact, have a distinct cost and weight reduction against the stainless option, allow complete design freedom and are HDPE Recyclable.

To convert your current heavy stainless-steel buckets or non-detectable plastic buckets please contact Gough Engineering on 01782 654 770 for a quote or further information on this new range of metal detectable plastic buckets.
