Description
RUBPLA VMQ SILICONE-60 FOOD Blue MetDet is a high-quality silicone rubber sheet with metal-detectable properties.This quality meets extensive food contact standards, including FDA, EC 1935/2004, BfR, WRAS, and KTW.Thanks to the integrated detectable additives, any material particles entering the product stream can be immediately detected by metal detection systems.Additionally, the material offers the characteristic excellent temperature resistance and chemical stability of silicone, combined with a striking blue color for additional visual inspection.
In short: a detectable food-grade silicone rubber sheet for critical production processes in the food industry.
Application
- Food industry (critical processes)
- Production lines equipped with metal detection
- Cutting and processing plants
- Seals in food processing equipment
- Hygienic installations
- Drinking water and food applications
