DSM Nutritional Products Receives 2009 Frost & Sullivan Award for Quality in Infant Nutrition
DSM is highly honored to receive this recognition. In introducing our innovative new baby food grade, we are responding to the growing concerns of manufacturers and consumers alike about the safety of infant formula products.
29/05/09 The 2009 Frost & Sullivan award for Global Excellence in Quality in the infant nutrition market has been presented to DSM Nutritional Products. The award was conferred in recognition of DSM’s outstanding contribution in setting new safety standards for use in infant nutrition markets across the globe.
DSM’s new infant formula grade – the first of its kind in the infant nutrition sector – was launched in 2008. The move was a direct response to evolving market needs. Throughout the world, regulators, manufacturers and consumers alike have become increasingly aware of the importance of applying very high product safety standards to ingredients destined for the infant nutrition sector. This awareness has been driven by a number of highly publicized food contamination scandals.
DSM’s new baby food grade sets a new industry benchmark for quality, traceability and reliability. As the only nutritional ingredient company in the world to source its micronutrients from its own factories, DSM owns the entire production process from creation to supply and is therefore able to apply the most stringent product and process safety standards.
Fabiana Assis, Global Marketing Manager, Infant Nutrition, comments: “ DSM is highly honored to receive this recognition. In introducing our innovative new baby food grade, we are responding to the growing concerns of manufacturers and consumers alike about the safety of infant formula products ”.
