Using the latest knowledge and technology to analyze traces of harmful substances and microbes that contaminate and spoil food, we are conducting preventive research to comprehensively assess the safety of food materials and products that the Kirin Group uses and sells.
By applying sophisticated analyzing and evaluation technology we address and resolve issues directly relating to our businesses well before they become serious problems. We collect and share the latest information and development on food safety within the Group to continuously enhance our technical expertise in ensuring food safety.


We are developing and deploying sophisticated technology capable of detecting and analyzing even faint traces of complex harmful substances, such as residual agricultural chemicals and ingredients known to cause allergic reactions when consumed in the human body.

We are developing technology to identify bacteria, fungi and harmful microbes that cause food poisoning, and to detect their presence in food. We are also refining the technology that enables us to detect the presence of unculturable microbes more quickly.

We apply a biological approach to conducting comprehensive analyses and evaluations of food safety. This includes a safety assessment of food products under development, and follow-up research into products about which we receive customer feedback.
