Our Partners
Founded in 1985 by Brian S. Teasdale, BST Detectable Products is the original developer of metal detectable plastics and the creator of the world’s first detectable pen. For over 40 years, we’ve been helping food manufacturers reduce the risk of foreign body contamination through innovative, high-quality detectable solutions.
Today, our range includes metal detectable, X-ray visible, shatter-resistant, and antibacterial products trusted by food, beverage, and pharmaceutical manufacturers around the world. From detectable stationery and food preparation tools to engineering supplies and bespoke moulded components, we provide everything businesses need to strengthen food safety and support compliance.
Innovation has always been at the heart of BST. Many of our products are designed and manufactured using our own tooling and our proprietary XDETECT® material, delivering durable, reliable solutions that stand up to demanding production environments. And if you can’t find exactly what you need, our bespoke manufacturing capabilities allow us to develop products tailored to your specific application.
As a family-run business, we’re passionate about more than just manufacturing products. We believe education is just as important as innovation, which is why we actively share practical food safety knowledge, guidance, and resources to help businesses build safer production environments.
Visit BST to discover how over four decades of innovation, quality, and expertise continue to help manufacturers improve food safety, reduce contamination risks, and protect consumers worldwide.
