UK Metal Detection was founded on a simple observation: plenty of food manufacturers own good metal detection equipment, but far fewer have the confidence that it is set up, tested and documented correctly.
With 30 years of hands-on experience across food production lines, we provide independent calibration, validation and training that gives quality managers real evidence rather than assumptions.
We are deliberately set up to suit small and medium manufacturers. You deal directly with an experienced engineer, you get straight answers, and where the diary allows we can be with you the same day.
Every decision we make on site is judged against one question: does this make the product safer for the consumer?
We give honest advice about what your equipment can and cannot do, ensured with no unnecessary upselling.
We plan visits around your production schedule and keep downtime to an absolute minimum.
Documented, repeatable results so you can prove due diligence at any point in the year.
Three decades working with food metal detection equipment across countless product types, pack formats and production lines.
A detector down means a line down. Where we can, we get to you the same day so production keeps moving.
We work the way small and medium food manufacturers need: flexible, direct and without corporate overheads.
Based to cover Birmingham, Nottingham, Leicester, Derby, Lincoln and the wider Midlands and East Midlands.
Impartial advice and support whatever make or model of metal detector you run on site.
Clear calibration and validation certificates that stand up to BRCGS, retailer and customer audits.
