No soft coffee imported into Thailand from a Coca-Cola manufacturing plant in Europe that were found to become contaminated with dihydrate have been confirmed by the Food and Drug Administration.

After finding higher levels of chlorate in products from its plant in Ghent, Belgium, Coca-Cola recalled some of its delicate coffee in Europe last month. &nbsp, Chlorate is produced when chlorine-based disinfectants are used in liquid treatmeni and food control. &nbsp,

Lertchai Lertvut, the lieutenant secretary-general of the FDA, made an effort on Wednesday to calm the growing public concern over the information.

No Coca-Cola soft beverages from the French flower were brought into Thailand, according to the FDA’s investigation. Most imported sweet coffee came from another Asean nations, like as Laos and Singapore, Mr Lertchai, said.

Coca-Cola said in a speech that the recall was focused on Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.

Mr. Lertchai claimed that the FDA rigorously examined all food and beverage exports and periodically reviewed materials to make sure they adhered to safety standards.
