Detectamet's New Detectable Paper to Reduce Paper Contamination of Food

YORK, United Kingdom, January 18, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Consumers hate to find their food is contaminated with paper. Yet the use of paper in food processing is still essential for many uses. To reduce this risk of contamination in food a detectable paper is now available from Detectamet. This paper is made using a patented method of combining paper and film in a detectable and durable laminate. Printed instructions, recording of process activities and making special labels are just a few examples of how the detectable paper could be used.

“I have been astonished at the performance of this material” said James Chrismas Detectamet MD “ It feels like a good quality uncoated paper and it prints so easily on standard printing equipment.”

Detectamet Detectable Paper is strong and durable, and highly resistant to tearing and damage from water and grease. This versatile paper can be die-cut, perforated, embossed and glued like any standard paper. It requires no special inks or toners to produce high quality printed material on common printing systems.

This 120gsm paper is available in A4 and USA letter formats and custom sheet sizes can be produced in smaller quantities. Pack sizes of 25, 50 and 100 sheets are available. For special requirements it is possible for custom shapes to be supplied.

Detectable Paper from Detectamet is a major step forward in contamination prevention and can further reduce the risks expensive emergency product recall. It allows tailor made print material to be produced on site.

Where hand written sheet paper is used to identify batches in process the advantages of a detectable, water and grease resistant paper is immediately obvious. “We have already received inquiries from food producers and food retailers who have identified a unique use for detectable paper in their business and the safe production of their branded products” explained James.
