Magnet Validation

Independent magnet validation for Utah food manufacturers, including visual inspection, magnetic strength testing, capture efficiency testing, and a detailed report.

Magnets lose strength over time and can be damaged in ways that aren't obvious. Regular validation shows your magnets still capture ferrous contamination the way your food safety plan says they do.

What's included

• Visual inspection for damage, wear, and proper installation
• Magnetic strength testing to confirm each magnet still meets your standard
• Capture efficiency testing to show the magnet actually catches metal in your process
• A full detailed report for your food safety records and auditors

When to validate

• At least once a year
• When magnets are installed, replaced, or relocated
• After any event that could have damaged a magnet
• When a customer or certification body requires it
