Detectamet Metal Detectable & X-Ray Visible Retractable Pen

British company Detectamet has released its new metal and x-ray detectable ‘Cryo Pen’, which is part of its Elephant range. The pen allows continuous, smooth writing in oily, greasy, wet and powdery environments. In addition, the pen also works in temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius making it suitable for freezers and cold stores.  It can also write upside down and in zero gravity.

The pen is retractable which means that there is less chance of a pen lid being mislaid, and the entire pen is metal and X-Ray detectable. Finally, the ‘Cryo Pen’ can also take refills, which reduces waste as there is no need to throw the whole pen away when it runs out of ink.

Alongside this new product, Detectamet has also announced that it will be expanding its Canadian branch. Based in Ottawa, the branch will now occupy the empty unit adjacent to its current site, doubling the size of the site to 5000 square feet. The company produces and distributes detectable tools and equipment used by the food and pharmaceutical industries.
