Metal- and X-Ray-Detectable Dust Pans

Blue

Red

Keep food processing areas tidy with these dust pans—they have metal and chemical additives that will set off metal detectors and show up on an X-ray if they fall into your line. They’re also brightly colored, so it’s easy to find and retrieve any broken pieces. They help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs to make sure contaminated food doesn’t leave your plant. These FDA-compliant dust pans also are safe for direct contact with food.

The curved handle is more ergonomic than straight handles, and helps prevent hand fatigue. A retention ridge on the front edge of the dust pan stops dust and debris from falling out once you’ve swept it in.

Metal- and X-Ray-Detectable Dust Brushes

Made with metal and chemical additives, the bristles and handles on these brushes won’t get past metal detectors or X-ray machines in your food facility. This detectability helps you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs. If brushes do come in contact with food, they’re FDA compliant.

Stainless steel staples and a resin secure the bristles in these brushes, so they won't fall into your line. To prevent bacteria from growing, the resin seals out water and polyester bristles won't absorb water. From top to bottom, these brushes resist chemicals, so you can use them with harsh cleaners.

Medium-bristle brushes are for light cleaning. Stiff-bristle brushes are durable and better for clearing thick layers of dust.

Metal- and X-Ray-Detectable Scrub Brushes with Extended-Reach Handle

Clean hard-to-reach areas in pharmaceutical and food-processing plants—these scrub brushes have metal and chemical additives that set off metal detectors and show up on an X-ray if they fall into your line. Their brush block and handle grip are bright blue, so they’re easy to find and retrieve. They help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs to make sure contaminated food doesn’t leave your plant. These scrub brushes are also FDA-compliant for direct contact with food.

The bristles are secured to these brushes with stainless steel staples to keep them from falling into the food. To prevent bacteria growth, the crevices around the staples are covered with epoxy resin, and the bristles themselves don’t retain moisture. Chemical and temperature resistant, the bristles, as well as the plastic handle grip, stand up to harsh sanitizers and cleaners.
