The Food Safe [FS] product world from Murtfeldt

Plastic solutions for the food industry

Components made from food safe plastics for safe and fast food processing

As a company in the food production and processing industry, you face ever-increasing demands. You have to deliver consistently high-quality, safe products with a low reject rate. On top of that, you have to meet stringent legal requirements for product quality testing, packaging testing, traceability, and food safety, as well as the rigorous testing criteria of recognised certification standards.


Plastics that meet EU and FDA food safety regulations

Through our plastics solutions, we support your work as a food manufacturer, or manufacturer of machinery and systems for the food industry, with machine components that ensure the highest levels of hygiene and food safety. In addition to plastics that comply with EU and FDA food regulations, we also offer a wide range of detectable plastics to ensure the safety of your processes. Plus, our products are characterised by their high abrasion and wear resistance, which enables them to withstand long machine running times and the use of intensive cleaning agents. Continuous migration tests guarantee compliance with legal requirements that are placed on what are known as ‘food contact materials’, which also include Murtfeldt products such as drive and conveying screws, product turners, dough scrapers and much more besides.

Detect foreign objects, protect your brand – an example


Despite the greatest care being taken, plastic foreign bodies can inadvertently get into food during the production process. Our extensive choice of coloured Murtfeldt plastics can help you in identifying and removing any particles that do occur, either visually or via detector. This enables you to avoid product recalls, and possible damage to your brand image, and also to maintain your high quality assurance standards.

Application example

Custom-developed dough scraper with separately manufactured stainless steel shaft

Our design engineers often develop custom solutions that significantly optimise the existing design of the component currently in use. The dough scraper is a case in point. A large well-known bakery used dough scrapers made from polyurethane to remove residual dough from the edges of their mixer bowls. The plastic used for the scraper was subject to very heavy wear, so the entire welded component (consisting of an expensive stainless steel shaft and the polyurethane dough scraper) had to be regularly replaced. As a cost-saving solution, Murtfeldt’s Application Technology Team designed a two-part assembly with the option of obtaining the plastic scraper as a separate part. By using the technically high-quality, antibacterial Murtfeldt plastic Original Material “S” plus AB, wear was also significantly reduced. The component now has a much longer service life.
