Metal Detectable and X-Ray Detectable—Metal detectable and X-ray detectable containers are made with additives that will set off alerts if a piece falls into your line, helping you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs. These containers are also bright blue, so they’re easily spotted for removal if a piece breaks off into a batch.

Metal- and X-Ray-Detectable Stackable Plastic Tote Boxes

Shown with Lid (Sold Separately) Secured with Cable

Ties (Not Included)


Black	Blue	Green

Red	White	Yellow

Move and store materials in your food processing facility with these tote boxes—they have metal and chemical additives that will set off metal detectors and show up on X-ray machines if a piece falls into your line. They help you comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs to keep contaminated food from leaving your facility. They’re also FDA compliant for direct contact with food.

The stackable design makes it easy to store multiple totes. They’re also sized to fit standard conveyors, so you don’t need a separate tray to move them through your line. These tote boxes come in several colors so you can color-code lines or materials and minimize the risk of cross-contamination.

Loose-Fitting Lids—Loose-fitting lids are also metal and X-ray detectable. They have multiple holes that line up with holes on the totes, so you can secure them with cable ties, rings, or locks. Create a hinged lid by using cable ties on one side only.
