Syntegon Technology has launched the next generation of flow wrappers for the North American market—the Pack 202. This is a fully automated horizontal flow-wrapping machine for low to medium speeds. The flow wrapper is suitable for bars, bakery products, cookies, and crackers, as well as nonfood applications. Technological advances include an easily removable discharge belt, upgrades to the cross-seal and fin-seal units, and a highly intuitive user-centered design.
Belt Technologies Inc. designs and manufactures solid stainless steel belts and conveyor systems that help robotic technologies perform in the grocery and warehouse sectors reliably and efficiently. Their high tensile strength makes them exceptionally resilient and helps prevent jams in robotic automation and reliably perform tasks that demand rapid acceleration, precise positioning, and repetition. Steel belts also do not stretch or elongate and can withstand extreme environments. They also are sanitary and easy to clean, making them ideal for use in the warehouse and grocery sectors, where hygiene is a critical issue.
Cambridge Security Seals has announced its new line of A-MVB™ antimicrobial, antiviral, and antibacterial seals, which utilize a proprietary blend of resins and additives that repel and deactivate any infectious agents, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, algae, molds, or other microbes that can exist on the surface of a standard plastic seal. The ionic silver-based formula reduces the chance of disease transmission. The seals provide food and agriculture businesses and other industries that use tamper-evident and high-security plastic seals with an additional safety measure for their employees by eliminating the need to disinfect and clean the product.

Hygiena has announced the release of GlutenTox ELISA Rapid G12, an improved test for the most immunotoxic peptide in gluten. The test provides more accurate results in less time than either previous versions or competitors’ ELISA tests for gluten and offers fast, convenient, and accurate measurement of gluten down to 0.6 ppm (0.3 ppm of gliadin).
Vikan has added two new brushes to its detail cleaning range, which now includes seven brushes in different shapes and sizes, all designed specifically for awkward cleaning tasks. The company lineup now includes a slender, versatile brush with a narrow head, long handle, and hard, angled bristles—ideal for a range of cleaning tasks, including the insides of complex, cramped machinery and deep containers, and an ultraslim brush with a scraping edge and extra-stiff end bristles—ideal for tackling stubborn debris in extremely tight spaces.
QA Supplies recommends the UHADO-16 and HASO-8 humidity and temperature loggers for monitoring current humidity and temperature readings simultaneously. These products are ideal for recording and monitoring the environment within a barn, warehouse, cooler, refrigerated transportation, and more.
Tessco Systems offers an antimicrobial technology in its pallets that is not a surface application coating but an intrinsic additive that is embedded throughout the pallet polymer and provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial protection that won’t rub, scratch, or wash off. Tested and proven at extreme cold and hot temperatures, these pallets help actively reduce bacteria, fungi, and yeasts by up to 99.99 percent.
Belt Technologies Inc. designs and manufactures solid stainless steel belts and conveyor systems that help robotic technologies perform in the grocery and warehouse sectors reliably and efficiently. Their high tensile strength makes them exceptionally resilient and helps prevent jams in robotic automation and dependably perform tasks that demand rapid acceleration, precise positioning, and repetition. Steel belts also do not stretch or elongate and can withstand extreme environments. They are also sanitary and easy to clean, making them ideal for use in the warehouse and grocery sectors, where hygiene is a critical issue.

Industrial Magnetics Inc. recently introduced the Spout Line Inspection Magnet (SLIM™) for processors who require simple and frequent sampling of the product stream at designated inspection points on the line. Intended for use with a comprehensive foreign contamination-detection program, the SLIM inspection magnets can be strategically placed at multiple locations throughout the process stream, such as discharge points of mixers, sifters, and screws, to help pinpoint the origin of any ferrous metal contamination.
NaturArk, a supplier of scientifically studied and validated ingredients for the human nutrition and food and beverage industries, has announced the launch of its Endophyllene® phyto-cannabinoid ingredient. A natural endo-cannabinoid agonist of the CB2 cannabinoid receptor, Endophyllene delivers a high concentration of the natural compound beta-caryophyllene. It is available as a highly purified black pepper extract in two forms: a powdered extract containing 30 percent beta-caryophyllene, which is ideal for tablets, capsules, and sachets, and an oil-based extract containing 80 percent beta-caryophyllene, which is well-suited as a straight drop in soft-gelatin capsules or liquid formulations.
SnapDNA has announced the first culture-independent, rapid pathogen-analysis platform. TrueRapid™ detects only live cells and works with standard, industry-accepted environmental samples collected from all surfaces. It provides quantitative results with a total time-to-results of 20 minutes with less than 5 minutes of hands-on time. The platform is designed to be used on-site by minimally trained personnel and without additional equipment or specialized facilities.
Madison Chemical has introduced DART 444, a chlorinated, moderately alkaline detergent designed as a one-package, general-purpose foaming cleaner that performs well in most water conditions. When used in a “foam generator,” it produces a thick, stable, wet foam without dry-out or runoff. It is ideal for cleaning vertical, overhead surfaces, especially machinery surfaces that are difficult to clean by any other methods. It rinses easily and without streaking and is acceptable for use in food and beverage plants as an A1 general cleaning agent on all surfaces, or with steam or mechanical cleaning in all departments. It is proven effective in food and beverage processing facilities, specifically dough mixers, mixing tanks, and conveyor lines.
