Customer Success Story: How Our Metal Detector Protected a Bakery Brand from a Food Safety Crisis

For every food manufacturer, safety is not just a requirement — it’s the foundation of trust. In today’s highly competitive market, even a single contaminated product can trigger recalls, damage brand reputation, and result in costly losses. This is why one of our bakery clients decided to strengthen their quality control process with our advanced metal detection technology.

The Challenge: Hidden Risk in a Popular Product

Our client, a well-known bakery brand, produces thousands of loaves of bread every day. During routine production, they faced a growing concern: tiny metal fragments could enter the product through equipment wear, raw material handling, or manual operations. Even though these risks were rare, one undetected incident could lead to serious consequences — from consumer complaints to legal liabilities.

The Solution: Real-Time Metal Detection and Automatic Rejection

To address this challenge, the bakery integrated Shan’an Technology’s high-sensitivity metal detector into their production line.

The results were immediate and impressive. In one recent case, the machine successfully identified and automatically removed a loaf containing metal contamination — before it ever left the factory. This single detection not only prevented a potential food safety incident but also reinforced consumer confidence in the brand’s commitment to quality.

The Results: Safer Products, Stronger Brand

Since installing our system, the bakery has seen major improvements:

•  Zero contaminated products reaching the market

•  Faster quality control processes with minimal manual intervention

•  Enhanced brand reputation for safety and reliability

The client’s QA manager shared:

“With Shan’an’s metal detector, we feel confident that every product leaving our factory meets the highest safety standards. It has become an essential part of our production process.”
