Matrixcope Selected by KFC USA for Advanced X-ray Contaminant Detection Solutions

Matrixcope is proud to announce its cooperation with KFC USA, one of the world’s most recognized quick-service restaurant brands,
as a trusted partner for advanced X-ray inspection solutions in poultry-based food production.

In high-volume chicken processing, controlling physical contaminants such as bones, plastic fragments, and small metal particles
is critical to consumer safety, regulatory compliance, and brand reputation. Matrixcope’s X-ray technology has been selected to
support KFC’s commitment to delivering safe, high-quality products across its U.S. supply chain.

Scope of Matrixcope X-ray Inspection Solutions

• Detection of bone fragments commonly found in deboned chicken products.
  • Identification of plastic contaminants originating from packaging materials or processing equipment.
  • Reliable detection of small metal particles that may bypass conventional metal detectors.

Matrixcope’s X-ray systems are designed for continuous operation in demanding food processing environments and comply with
FDA and HACCP requirements applicable to the U.S. poultry and ready-to-eat food industries.
