The new BST Eco v2.0 DetectaPen boasts all the same properties as the original Eco but with an all new sleek mat design for ultimate writing comfort!
They feature a one piece metal detectable and x-ray visible plastic body made from our specially formulated xdetect Polypropylene compound. The beautifully simple design is comprised of only two main components, the pen body and the ink cartridge. They boast all the same properties as other pens in the BST DetectaPen range, including FDA and EU food contact approvals, they are shatter resistant, dual detectable, lanyard compatible, incorporate silver ion antibacterial technology, and we are proud to say ‘Made in Britain’.
The Eco V2.0 DetectaPen® is still the best value for money detectable pen available from BST. Moulded from xdetect®, which is an advanced polypropylene based compound, optimised for metal and x-ray detection in the food and pharmaceutical industries. This xdetect® compound also incorporates silver ion antibacterial technology, which is effective against harmful bacteria and mould, including, but not limited to, EColi, MRSA, and Salmonella.
The ink cartridge is manufactured from solid brass, with a choice of either a nickel-plated or brass writing nib. Both the nickel-plated and brass nibs contain a 1mm stainless steel writing ball. The high quality ink cartridge means the pen offers a smooth and smudge free writing experience.

A metal detectable product is made fully from detectable materials and has the potential to be detected on most industrial metal detection systems. These materials may be metallic or plastic/rubber with special ferromagnetic additives.
X-Ray Visible
An x-ray visible product is made fully from x-ray visible materials. These may be metallic or plastic/rubber with special high density additives.
Antibacterial
An antibacterial product is made from plastic incorporating Steritouch® silver ion antimicrobial additives. This technology remains active for the entire lifespan of the product and protects against pathogenic germs and moulds such as E-Coli, MRSA and Salmonella.
Impact Resistant
An impact resistant product is made from a plastic or rubber that is designed not to shatter or snap. These materials make food production items safer and reduces the risk of that product / material becoming a foreign body contaminant.
BST have 30 years’ experience in the design and manufacture of metal
detectable and x-ray visible plastic components. Examples of
bespoke projects include rubber seals, gaskets and extrusions,
as well as pre-loaded vacuum bread depanner belts featuring metal
detectable suction cups and retaining clips.
With a wide selection of food grade detectable raw materials
to choose from, a solution to your problem is never far away.
BST Detectable Products reduce the risk of foreign body contamination in hygiene
critical environments, such as food and drink, pharmaceutical or
