What our customers are saying

Food contamination is a sensitive topic, and we understand that many producers prefer not to highlight it. Still, it’s a challenge that must be addressed — and Food Radar® is a major step forward.

As awareness of Food Radar® grows, so does our customer base. Systems are now installed worldwide, and many of our customers run multiple Food Radar® units per site. Interest continues to rise as food contamination moves higher on the industry agenda.

Here are some of the manufacturers who have chosen Food Radar® to strengthen their food safety.

The company offers a diverse portfolio for both the retail and foodservice sectors, including jams, sweet and savory spreads, cereal and protein bars, as well as dessert sauces and syrups.

Marín Giménez – Spain

Andrés Fernández, Deputy Quality Manager

The number of incidents involving fruit stones and soft plastics has dropped significantly, and we’ve noticed a real difference in the consistency of our product quality.

Marín Giménez is a company specialized in fruit processing. The company’s main objective is to produce the highest quality products with the maximum level of safety standards whilst maintaining competitiveness. Marín Giménez currently supplies its products to the dairy, beverage, marmalade, and baby food sectors.

More than a company, Mühlhäuser is deeply rooted in the German food culture. We are famously known for our unique plum jam, still being produced at our traditional location in Thuringia. While we honor these traditions, Mühlhäuser is always interested in modern solutions to ensure good taste for our customers.

Peter Bengtsson, Quality & Sustainability Manager

Since implementing Food Radar, we’ve seen significant improvements. Most notably, we’ve had zero incidents involving foreign objects in our products.

Hafi specializes in the development and production of high-quality fruit-based products such as jams, marmalades, chutneys and sauces.

The system’s ability to address low-density foreign bodies impressed us.
