Everyone, from small children to senior citizens, adores sweet potatoes.
Calbee Kaitsuka Sweet Potato is constantly striving to live up to our customers' wishes to "enjoy safe food." We advance such efforts through joint research and the exchange of information and opinions with our contract farms, the producers of the sweet potatoes.
To ensure that our customers can enjoy our sweet potatoes with a full sense of reassurance, Calbee Kaitsuka Sweet Potato conducts pre-shipment inspections to confirm that all produce scheduled for delivery fall within the required standards.
Screening tests are conducted using the NMU12 Food Radiation Measurement System, a conveyor-style inspection machine. This system can inspect all the sweet potatoes in the orange containers.
Inspection methods based on gamma ray micro-spectrometry using a germanium semiconductor detector are conducted (compliant with measurement methods stipulated by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology).
Calbee Kaitsuka Sweet Potato conducts regular tests on agricultural chemical residues based on the Food Safety Basic Act and provides the test results to the general public.
