Dulcesol - Attention to Quality

Case Study

At Every Stage of Production

Grupo Dulcesol's manufacturing philosophy is "the quality of the end product is mainly determined by the quality of the raw materials used." Multiple certifications including IFS, BRC and ISO 9001 confirm its commitment to manufacturing quality foods. To maintain its high standards, the company relies on METTLER TOLEDO solutions across production processes.

Recipe for Success
Dulcesol is a family-run business that manufacturers bakery and confectionery products. The company produces biscuits and baby foods for both its own brands and white labelled products. Maintaining its reputation for producing high quality foods is essential to Grupo Dulcesol's success.

Grupo Dulcesol is comprised of two business units - Dulcesa and Juan y Juan. By supplying many of its own ingredients, the company is able to maintain a tight control on the quality of the raw materials used in the production process.

To ensure the end product meets its own exacting standards, and those of its customers including Carrefour, El Corte Inglés, Consum and Bonarea, the company uses a number of product inspection technologies which are all supplied by METTLER TOLEDO.

Adherence to HACCP requirements at all times is essential to maintain its numerous quality and food safety certifications. The hygienic design of equipment and fully automated production processes are critical keys for success.

A total of 96 metal detection systems and five x-ray inspection systems are used to inspect packaged products for contaminants.

An additional 74 checkweighers are used for package fill control, to ensure products are within the specified weight limits.

Freeweigh.NetTM software supports full traceability to support quality audit requirements.

"We use METTLER TOLEDO product inspection equipment because of the security and peace of mind it offers - we are confident the customer receives the correct amount of product, and that it is contaminant-free," explains Laura Martí, Grupo Dulcesol's Quality Control Manager.
