Bangkok, Thailand, June 17, 2015 - Designed for manufacturers to alleviate the increasing complexity of food safety, Eagle Product Inspection (Eagle) showcased five of its product inspection innovations at ProPak Asia 2015, Bangkok, Thailand (June 17-20, 2015). With food producers facing tighter controls on safety and quality, world-class product inspection systems are now more topical than ever as they help ensure food products contain no physical contaminants, a requirement for export. The company showed visitors on Stand 5C41, the cutting edge detection capabilities of the Eagle machines that ensure manufacturers are compliant with global food safety regulations and principles.

"Urbanization has spread across many parts of the ASEAN region and we are experiencing lots of the same food and packaging trends here as we do in the West," said Somchai Chakornsiri, Head Eagle Product Inspection Asia-Pacific. "With the drive towards snack foods, fast food, frozen foods, pre-prepared food and single serve portions, we see a huge emphasis being placed on food safety at the manufacturer level as greater numbers of consumers put their faith in processed products. Industry regulations and growing popularity of global food safety certifications in the ASEAN region reflect an increased awareness amongst domestic consumers and retailers for high quality, safe products. In addition, compliance to export is only possible with a credible product inspection program delivered by advanced quality assurance technology, such as x-ray or metal detection. Utilizing these technologies, manufacturers can detect and remove physical contaminants such as metal, glass, calcified bones, stones and plastics."
