On the 30th, Namyang Dairy Products announced that it attended the '2023 Excellent Corporate Research Institute Designation Certificate Award Ceremony' held on the 29th at the Crystal Ballroom on the 3rd floor of The-K Hotel in Seoul.
Hosted by the Ministry of Science and ICT and organized by the Korea Industrial Technology Association, this event was held for companies designated as excellent research institutes through outstanding research and development capabilities.
Namyang Dairy Products Central Research Institute was recognized for its differentiated and advanced competitiveness in product technology and food safety analysis capabilities. In particular, in the product technology capability category, it received high scores for holding many patents compared to peer companies, including the ‘MSD technology’ and ‘AA particle drying technology’ that improve the solubility of powdered milk, the country’s largest ‘probiotic fermentation technology,’ and the ‘freeze-drying technology’ developed purely with domestic technology.
Based on these technological capabilities, Namyang Dairy Products also earned the honor of winning the ‘Gold Award’ for five consecutive years at the world-renowned international quality competition ‘Monde Selection’ for its fermented milk Bulgari and Wisen products.
Especially in food safety analysis capabilities, based on excellent food analysis of over 1,300 items, it became the first in the infant food industry to receive international accreditation as a testing institution from the Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (KOLAS), and also received favorable reviews in international proficiency tests such as FAPAS.
Along with this, the Namyang Dairy Products Central Research Institute, which has consistently achieved meaningful results such as the development of Certified Reference Materials (CRM) for powdered milk, achieved the remarkable feat of being selected as the nationally accredited ‘National Food Composition Data Center’ in March 2021, the only food company to do so.
Lee Ki-woong, head of the Namyang Dairy Products Central Research Institute, said, “I am pleased that our technology and research achievements, accumulated over 60 years solely for quality competitiveness, have been recognized,” and added, “We will continue to repay customer support with excellent nutritional design and superior products.”
