Tomorrow (August 1st), the "Measures for the Administration of Filing of Matters Concerning Raw Materials of Infant Formula Foods and Other Issues in Heilongjiang Province (Trial Implementation)" will be formally implemented. The introduction of this new regulation undoubtedly sends a strong signal to the whole society – when it comes to the safety of infant food, there is no such thing as being too strict!
Infant formula food is "the first food" for babies aged 0-3. The safety of its raw materials and the accuracy of its formula are directly related to children's healthy growth. According to the requirements of Heilongjiang's new regulations this time, enterprises are required to file matters such as raw materials of infant formula food, food additives, product formulas and labels with the provincial market supervision bureau. The purpose is to strengthen enterprises' main responsibility and realize that "the source can be traced, the destination can be tracked, and the responsibility can be investigated".
For enterprises, this is not an "additional burden" but a "mandatory task" to protect children. However, questions arise:
II. WPTEC MFS Error-Proof Batching System: Enterprises' "Intelligent Compliance Assistant"
Faced with stricter regulatory requirements, what enterprises need is not "more tiring manual inspections" but "smarter intelligent tools". The WPTEC MFS Error-Proof Batching System is designed precisely to address the "batching pain points" of infant formula enterprises, using technology to help enterprises guard the "first line of raw material safety".
The new regulations require raw materials to be filed, and enterprises must ensure that production raw materials are consistent with the filed information. The MFS system supports dynamic management of raw material information (including name, specification, supplier, validity period, etc.). When raw materials are collected for production, automatic verification is conducted via barcode scanning: if a raw material is not entered into the system (or inconsistent with the filed information entered) or has expired, a red alert is immediately triggered to prevent "non-compliant raw materials" from entering production.
Infant formula requires extremely high batching precision (e.g., the error of certain nutrients must be controlled within ±1%). Manual weighing is prone to issues like "misreading" or "miscalculations". The MFS system completely addresses this pain point through intelligent guidance + real-time verification:
Numbers tell the story: For an infant formula enterprise using the MFS system, the batching error rate dropped from 0.8% to 0, and production efficiency increased by 25% — ensuring product quality while reducing rework costs.
The new regulations require "readiness for inspection", meaning enterprises must retain complete production data (raw material collection, batching process, product delivery, etc.). The MFS system automatically records every action in the batching process (who, when, which raw material was used, how much was added), forming a "visual traceability chain". During regulatory inspections, enterprises only need to log into the system to quickly export data such as raw material filing information, batching operation logs, and quality inspection reports, and generate "compliance reports" with one click — completely eliminating the hassle of "rummaging through account books and searching for documents".
Scenario simulation: If a batch of products is questioned about "raw material sources", the enterprise can quickly trace via the MFS system: which supplier the "corn syrup" used in this batch came from, when it was filed, when it was collected, and who weighed it — all data is well-documented, making it easy to cope with regulatory inspections.
III. Guarding "safety on the tip of the tongue" — we fight side by side with enterprises
Infants are the "apple of the family's eye" and the "future hope" of the nation. The introduction of Heilongjiang's new regulations represents a "further upgrade" in the country's focus on infant food safety; while WPTEC's MFS error-proof batching system is a "further support" for enterprises to respond to upgraded supervision.
For enterprises, compliance is not the goal; protecting children is. When we use technological means to turn "places where humans might make mistakes" into "places where the system must prevent errors", and when we turn "regulatory requirements" into "rules automatically enforced by the system", we can truly achieve the goal of "ensuring every bite of infant food is safe".
Conclusion: New regulations are "challenges" and even more "opportunities"
Heilongjiang's new regulations on raw material filing are not meant to "create obstacles for enterprises" but to "help enterprises establish credibility" — only those enterprises that value food safety and proactively embrace technology can win parents' trust in the fierce market competition.
WPTEC's MFS error-proof batching system is willing to be enterprises' "intelligent guardian", using technology to help you:
