Synutra not to recall milk products in China
Synutra International, a China-based infant formula company, said that its products are safe and it will not recall any of its products following local Chinese media reports that one of the four-month old twins in Jiangxi province who consumed the company’s powdered milk died and another became ill.
Synutra chairman and CEO Liang Zhang said the company firmly believes this is an isolated incident unrelated to Synutra's products.
"All of our products, including the lot under question, are thoroughly tested and analyzed before shipment. These products are formulated and produced under stringent safety standards to safely meet the nutritional needs of infants," Zhang said.
"The company and our distributors are actively cooperating with various local and provincial authorities to investigate the source of the reported illness.
"The Jiangxi Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision is in the process of testing product samples collected from the affected family."
Synutra expects to provide updates to this situation as new material developments become available.
