BST Detectable Products

BST strive to be the global first choice supplier of metal detectable and x-ray visible products to the food industry. Established in 1985, BST were the original pioneers of metal detectable plastics, to this day our innovation and supply capability continues to grow from strength to strength. 

We specialise in metal detectable, x-ray visible, shatter resistant and antibacterial food safe products, that are utilised across all food sectors including bakery, confectionery, meat, fish, fruit, vegetable and pre-prepared meals.

Many of our best selling products are of our own design and are produced locally using our own injection moulds/tools. Other detectable products we distribute on behalf of other companies that are specialists in specific areas, such as PPE, safety knives and food grade lubrication. We keep granular compounds and sheet detectable plastic and rubber materials in stock, ready to be sent to any of our manufacturing partners for stock production or bespoke projects.

On a daily basis, we are manufacturing detectable products, developing new products with our partners, building new business relationships and also trying to educate the world about the benefits of using detectable products and materials within food production environments. We have seven members of staff dedicated to Detectapen® assembly, which is a major part of our operations at our premises in Doncaster.
