Testing metal detectors on a frequent basis is an important part of all food safety plans. These new wands are made from impact resistant and shatterproof polycarbonate, and have a smooth, sleek, hygienic design to avoid food traps and for easy cleaning. They have a large, easy grip paddle to ease insertion and removal from food, or to lay flat on packaged products. The colored polycarbonate indicates the metal sphere type, and markings are clearly laser etched, which will not fade over time.

In conjunction with its new test wands, Fortress is launching its test sample e-commerce store, shopfti.fortresstechnology.com. The most popular types of test samples are currently available, and other new types of test samples currently in development will be added as they become available.
