In 2026, food safety is no longer just about end-of-line detection—it’s about preventing contamination by design. Our latest blog post features Safety and Facilities Product Manager Tiffini Pieper, who breaks down how modern facilities are managing the "loose item" ecosystem to eliminate risks from everyday objects like pens, clipboards, and PPE.
From shatterproof polymers and sub-zero "Cryo ink" to the sophisticated science of metal-impregnated materials, Tiffini explains how even the smallest tools have evolved into critical safety devices. Discover why the industry has shifted to blue metal-detectable bandages, how to choose between impregnated and embedded materials, and the vital role of system validation in keeping your facility audit-ready. Learn how to protect your brand integrity by turning potential contaminants into detectable assets.
Tiffini Pieper is Product Manager of Safety and Facilities at Nelson-Jameson.
