Quality system

Quality management

Eight controlled steps from raw material intake to finished goods storage.

  1. Incoming inspection

    Incoming inspection

    Only safe ingredients that pass inspection move to the unpacking room.

  2. Foreign matter sorting

    Foreign matter sorting

    A foreign-matter sorter, powder remover and magnetic wand remove harmful substances.

  3. Optical sorting

    Optical sorting

    Ultra-high-speed cameras and spectral lasers pick out non-metal foreign matter such as fine plastic particles and hair.

  4. Sterilization

    Sterilization

    UV and plasma sterilization secure food safety without altering the raw material.

  5. Automatic weighing & packing

    Automatic weighing & packing

    Automatic weight sorting and packing deliver uniform quality.

  6. Metal detection

    Metal detection

    Every packed product passes through a metal detector that checks for metal foreign matter such as needles and metal fragments (detection standard: iron 2.0, SUS 2.5).

  7. Sealing & date printing

    Sealing & date printing

    After sealing, the packing date and use-by date are printed.

  8. Refrigerated storage

    Refrigerated storage

    Finished goods are refrigerated.
