Sanlu Group CO., Ltd. (SJZSGCZ) was a Chinese dairy products company based in Xinhua District, Shijiazhuang, the capital city of Hebei.[1] It produced one of the oldest and most popular brands of infant formula in China.[2] New Zealand's Fonterra owned 43% of Sanlu.[3][4]
In September 2008, it was involved in an adulterated powdered milk scandal, affecting some 294,000 Chinese infants and killing six.[5] Their infant formula had been adulterated with melamine, which can cause kidney stones and other complications. It received a bankruptcy order from Shijiazhuang Court on 24 December 2008,[6][7] and several of its top managers were sentenced to long prison terms.[8]
The Disgusting Food Museum in Malmö, Sweden, has a can of Sanlu milk powder in its collection. Due to the food contamination incident in 2008, it was rated as "disgusting food" by museum staff and was exhibited as an exhibit.[9]
