Who doesn’t like a bit of retail therapy?

The trend towards online shopping is something businesses cannot ignore, including manufacturers of equipment for the packaging and processing industries. So, here at Loma, we have just launched a user-friendly online ordering site where US customers can order test pieces.

Test pieces, which are precision ground balls encased in plastic, are widely used as part of the performance validation system to verify that inspection equipment is operating correctly. Using a fully-calibrated Loma test piece demonstrates commitment to due diligence and ensures lines are compliant with ISO 9000, HACCP and Retailers’ Code of Practice. These regulations and codes require all metal detectors and X-ray equipment to be installed at critical control points and to be routinely QA tested with documented results.

When ordering test pieces online, customers no longer need to request and then wait for a quote. Instead, they can save time and order test pieces in just a few clicks and at their convenience

Loma offers a range of test puck sizes, made from ferrous, non-ferrous and stainless steel, for performance validation testing of inspection systems. Placing an order via the new platform (us.store.loma.com) is simple. Customers just click on the test piece they need – via smartphone, tablet or PC – and indicate quantity before proceeding to check out and payment.

The most commonly ordered test pieces are held in stock and are normally shipped within a day of ordering. Even better, Loma offers free shipping on orders over $100!

For a much quicker and easier payment process, Loma’s online store accepts all major credit cards and was developed to eliminate the burden of customers having to complete internal paperwork, obtain purchase order numbers and process bank payments.

Using test pieces as part of performance validation testing of inspection machinery is an essential part of quality management and ensures food manufacturing, processing and packing lines are compliant with all codes and regulations. Loma’s new online store eases the entire ordering process, from the initial selection and secure payment to speedy processing and delivery, so that customers can have test pieces on hand when they need them most.
