Metal- and X-Ray Detectable Any-Angle Ink Pens

Write at any angle in food-, pharmaceutical-, and cosmetics-processing plants—these pens contain metal and chemical additives that set off metal detectors and show up on X-rays if they fall into your line. Bright blue in color, 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. They’re also FDA compliant for direct contact with food.

These pens have pressurized ink, so you can write at any angle, even upside down. They also work on wet, greasy, and powdery surfaces, as well as in extremely hot and cold environments.

Food And Beverage Ink Markers


Fine	Retractable Bold Tip

Extra Bold	Ultra Bold

Mark storage containers, processing equipment, and other surfaces in your food plant without risking contamination. These markers work best on clean, dry surfaces. The wider a marker’s stroke width, the larger and bolder its markings will be.

Retractable-Tip Cap—Markers with a retractable tip don’t have a cap, so they have one fewer piece that could fall into food.

FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.1520—FDA-compliant markers have a plastic body or cap that's approved for direct contact with food. To comply with Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) programs, they contain metal and chemical additives, so they’ll be picked up by metal detectors or X-ray machines if they fall in your line.
