Safety and particle-detection solutions: TECAFORM? AH UD Blue Plate aids in the detection of foreign matter in the seafood service industry and helps ensure that food only comes in contact with FDA-compliant materials throughout the production process. Food production lines detect unwanted particulates in products using one of the three standard detection processes: optical scanners, metal detection equipment, or X-ray equipment. TECAFORM? AH UD Blue is the first multi-detectable plastic that can be identified by all three detection systems.
