ABB’s new Ty-Rap® TyGenic™ antimicrobial detectable cable ties help cut contamination risk

The cost of contamination can add up, averaging between $10-30 million in direct costs of a recall, plus lost sales, customer confidence and more. In facilities where bacteria reduction and detectability are critical, a standard cable tie may go unidentified in product and its notched design can be a home for microorganisms. To help reduce risk in contamination-sensitive environments such as food and beverage processing, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, ABB has expanded its line of Ty-Rap^® cable ties with Ty-Rap^® TyGenic^™ cable ties, the industry’s first two-piece antimicrobial^* and detectable cable tie.
