FOOD INDUSTRY MATTER, PURIFY PROTECT YOUR BRAND Effective measures to prevent contamination of product is a major concern for food & dairy processors. Not only do foreign matter events require production line stoppages and incur significant costs, they also involve vast amounts of resource to regain consumer trust and rebuild damaged brand image. Foreign matter is an ever increasing priority in the process industry with an increasingly savvy consumer and rapidly growing demand for guaranteed product integrity. With this progressively tighter tolerance for foreign matter Metal detection and X-ray equipment is not a dependable sole final solution. Integrating the FORCE10 range of magnets into process lines to work hand-in-hand with inspection equipment is rapidly becoming the preferred and trusted solution for leading consumer brands. The Aurora team is having conversations every week with quality control personnel from a wide range of both domestic and international companies as to the value of a well implemented magnetic separation system. Aurora sees it as their responsibility to ensure trusted household brands are educated about the importance of a correctly specified magnetic separation system and how it can be implemented to add value to their product and brand and ultimately protect the consumer from harm. The Foreign Matter team are seeing a significant change in the food and dairy industry currently in terms of knowledge around foreign matter control. Magnets are not only used to remove contamination at the end of the line but are now also used as a rapid and cost effective means to track down contamination sources and monitor in-process contamination risk hot spots.
