azul (de metal) detectable Explanation: This is the expression used in the Spanish AENOR safety standards for those working in the food industry: "6.1 Higiene del Personal - zonas de manipulación de materias primas, preparación, procesado, envasado y almacenamiento" 6.1.3 (B) Todos los cortes y rozaduras en la piel al descubierto deben cubrirse con una tirita azul de metal detectable facilitada por la Empresa." http://www.infoagro.com/frutas/aenor_agroalimentarios2.htm "Detective" is a sure sign of machine translation in this context: here's another example from our old friends alibaba.com: "Metal detecting machine packaging is suitable for metal detective the foodstuff, medicine, flavoring, health care products" http://www.alibaba.com/showroom/metal-detection-for-food.htm... Meirs is right: this is to do with metal detectors. The rules demand blue metal-detectable dressings for food-handlers because of the risk of the dressing coming off and getting into the food. Blue makes it easiest to spot (since food is rarely blue) and metal-detectable means you'll find it by passing the bread or whatever through a metal detector (as advertised for this very purpose in the alibaba page cited above): "Why Blue Plasters? It gives high visibility amongst food. Blue is the colour that does not naturally occur often. [...] Why Metal Detectable Plasters? To detect contamination in cans and foil packaging as well as cartons, trays etc." http://www.ifsqn.com/forum/index.php/topic/15860-metal-detec... In practice, this type of dressing is usually called just "azul detectable" in Spanish: http://www.ausagrup.com/index.php/azul-detectable |
