Paint is more than just color—it’s a complex product with significant safety and compliance implications for the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry. From solvents and binders to pigments, each component affects paint’s regulatory status. Did you know that different pigments, like cobalt blue, can make paint more hazardous to transport? At SmarterX, we analyzed thousands of paint products and found that over 60% in certain categories—like countertop coatings—likely contain PFAS, raising environmental and compliance concerns. Our AI tools help brands stay compliant while ensuring safety and sustainability. Curious about the full picture?

?? Detectable Materials: The Innovative Solution for Safety in Packaging Lines ??? In the world of production and automation, quality and safety are top priorities. Recently, a client presented us with a challenge: to develop customized plastic small parts for a food packaging line that could be immediately detected in case of accidental product contamination. Our answer? Detectable polyamide, an advanced material created with a precise blend of homogeneously dispersed additives that combines the strength of polyamide with the ability to be detected by standard inspection systems. It is specifically designed to ensure maximum safety in packaging lines without compromising product safety. Plastic contamination, especially in the food industry, poses a significant health risk to consumers and can cause severe damage to a company’s reputation. ?? Key Features: ? Immediate Detectability: Detectable plastic is a polyamide formulated to be easily detected by standard detection systems such as metal detectors and X-rays, ensuring even the smallest scrap is caught ?? ? Versatility: This material can be used to produce a wide range of components, from screws to assembly parts, without compromising the functional properties of the material. ? Certified Compliance: This material meets the most stringent regulations in Europe and the United States, including European Regulation No. 1935/2004 and FDA Regulation 21 CFR 177.2600, ensuring maximum safety for food contact ??? ?? Why is it important? Imagine a high-speed packaging line: a small component that accidentally falls and goes undetected could compromise an entire production batch. Thanks to detectable plastic, even the smallest fragment can be identified and removed, protecting the product’s integrity and ensuring only safe products reach the end consumer. ?? Who is it for? If you're a packaging line manufacturer, especially in the food industry, products made with detectable plastic are a reliable solution to improve the safety of your production processes. They allow you to replace metal parts while maintaining detectability with metal detectors and X-rays. If you’re already using this material or find it interesting, let us know your thoughts in the comments! ?? #Automation #Innovation #Plastic #Detectable #MetalDetector #Packaging #Polyamide #Production #Reliability #Quality #CertifiedQuality #XRay #Safety #FoodSafety #Packaging
