Nestle sends 20 experts for melamine tests in China
In addition, two highly specialized machines that can detect minute traces of melamine are currently being used at the new research and development center.
Nestle had mounted a "sizable
effort" to ensure the safety of its dairy products in China,
sending in scientists and specialized machines in the wake of the
melamine contamination scandal.
"From the first moment, the first
minute we heard about the problem, we mobilized quite a sizable
effort," CEO Paul Bulcke said at a news conference to inaugurate
a research and development center in Beijing. "We mobilized
close to 45-50 people worldwide to be part of the solution and
containment of this problem."
Since the scandal broke, the company
began voluntary testing of all its dairy products produced before
September 2008. All of its products have been certified by the
Chinese government as safe, he said.
