Detectamet is SOFHT 'Company of the Year'

The Society of Food Hygiene and Technology (SOFHT) has recognised Detectamet Limited as the company of the year for 2013 with less than 100 employees. This award is a major milestone for the company as it marks its 10th anniversary.

“To be recognised by this respected independent body of food safety specialists in the UK food industry is a great honour,” said Angela Musson, Detectamet’s managing director. “We invited our guests to the SOFHT lecture and lunch to help us celebrate our ten years in business and this award was the icing on the celebratory cake.”

The presentation of the award to the Company of the Year with less than 100 employees was carried out by Professor Hugh Pennington who had given the Society’s annual lecture. It took place last Thursday at The Landmark Hotel London.

Detectamet is the leading manufacturer of metal detectable products and equipment for the food industry with a range of over 180 products that help to prevent the contamination of food. The company exports its products to over 40 countries around the world through over 150 distributors.

“We strive to meet the food safety needs of the food industry and this award will be a further boost to all our staff,” said Sean Smith Detectamet’s CEO “The UK food industry is now recognised around the world as practitioners of the highest standards of food safety, so to be given this award by its leading professional body is quite overwhelming.”
