Key Ingredient Market Grows Its Business With Metal Detection

Key Ingredient Market, a food processor of unique hand-crafted spreads and dips that got its start at farmers’ markets, spent its first five years using ice cream scoops to hand-fill their 6.5 oz. tubs. When this husband-and-wife team decided to expand, they needed new equipment that could help them grow. Knowing their uncompromising quality is at the heart of their success, Key Ingredient chose Mettler-Toledo Safeline’s Signature Touch metal detector.

“As we grow, we’re surrounding ourselves with the best tools available. We chose to work with Mettler-Toledo because they’re the best. It was an easy decision,” said Matthew Pivnick, President of Key Ingredient Market. “Our Signature Touch metal detector gives the buyers, distributers and retailers confidence that we’re delivering a safe, quality product. No product goes out the door until it’s been inspected.”
 
Key Ingredient uses Safeline’s Signature Touch metal detector to find ferrous and non-ferrous tramp metal and the most difficult to detect, non-magnetic stainless steel fragments and non-spherical fine wire contaminants. It features high frequency advanced detection coil technology and dynamic filtering techniques to maximize detection sensitivity while saving time and money by decreasing false rejects.
