Sanitary Design & Enhanced Food Safety

Problem

A two part scraper blade with a stainless steel base and UHMW blade, which had
crevices for food product to migrate and collect. This required additional cleaning and potential for bacteria growth.

Solution

A new sanitary design eliminating the two part blade with food grade metal detectable Polystone® M MDT UHMW. This design is easier to clean and eliminates the crevices of the two part blade design and minimizes the possibility of product contamination. It also provides additional food safety with the metal detectable UHMW material over the previous non-detectable FDA grade UHMW blade.

Result

The new design has been in service for several years, reducing cleaning and maintenance costs and enhancing food safety
