Metal Detection
Garment & Toy Metal Detection: Protecting Your Brand and Your Consumers
With extensive experience in handling high volumes of apparel and toys, we understand how the presence of even a tiny fragment of metal – a broken needle, a stray pin, or a manufacturing anomaly – can pose significant risks to consumers, leading to serious injury, product recalls, and sometimes irreparable damage to your brand’s reputation.
Advanced Supply Chain’s specialised garment and toy metal detection processes are designed to meticulously inspect your products, identifying and isolating even the smallest ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless steel contaminants. We act as your final line of defence, ensuring maximum safety and compliance before your products reach the market.

- Ultra-Sensitive Detection: Our equipment is calibrated to detect minute metallic particles, even those hidden deep within fabrics or complex toy structures.
- Traceability & Reporting: Utilising our Vector WMS software, we provide detailed reports on detected contaminants, allowing for full traceability and aiding in the investigation of contamination sources.
- Trained Technicians: Our experienced team monitors the detection process and handles any flagged items with care and precision, ensuring accurate identification and isolation.
Our metal detection services are essential for:
