* ECC/FEP: the ultimate in high security.
A dressing specifically designed for the food and catering/pharmaceutical industries, which offers a faster alternative to blue tape.
The additional length of the ECC/FEP (16cm) is the key to the products reliability ensuring that no matter how wet, steam filled or hot the environment becomes this product cannot become separated from the wearer.
Dressings for the food, catering and pharmaceutical industries: any form of food processing or handling demands that strictest hygiene regulations are enforced (Food Safety Act 1990).
Contamination on any scale entering the food chain is potentially disastrous and extremely costly: therefore every possible measure must be taken to reduce the risk.
Bright blue is the one colour that does not occur naturally in food, therefore if a dressing enters the food chain it is clearly visible.
Electro-magnetic detection: ideally suited for the food industry where the necessary detection equipment is operational.
The metal strip positioned behind the lint pad is the key component for detection.
A stray Detectamet dressing will always be detected.
The acrylic adhesive provides excellent adhesion; ensuring dressings remain in place and therefore safeguarding against time consuming and costly production hold-ups.
