Palintest Providing Chlorine and Ozone Testing for Ting Hsin International Group

Monday, 20 April

In February 2009, Chinese food giant Ting Hsin chose Palintest Ltd. as their exclusive supplier of residual chlorine and ozone testing products. These will be used in their water plants and production lines across the country throughout 2009-10, providing high-quality chemical testing for over 50 beverage subsidiaries of the group.

Ting Hsin International group is a major food and beverage producer in China, responsible for the iconic and widely-consumed 'Master Kong' brand of instant noodles as well as numerous other food and drink products. The Palintest equipment will be used in the company's beverage and water facilities to measure chlorine and ozone levels throughout the production process, making sure that all chemical levels are kept in the ideal 'safe' zone – high enough to be effective disinfectants, but low enough to avoid impacting on taste or quality.

Based in Gateshead, Palintest Ltd. is a specialist manufacturer of water analysis technology, with its origins dating back to 1870. In the 1950s, Dr. Thomas Palin joined the company after developing the principal of breakpoint chlorination for water and inventing the DPD testing method for chlorine levels in drinking water. The DPD method, though over 50 years old, is still the recognised standard chlorine test both in China and around the world. Through continued improvement, refinement and innovation, the company is now the world's leading producer of a full range of testing equipment and reagents for water, soil, and the environment.
