How Will the New Supplier Compliance Audit Standard of the China Yogurt Giants Influcnce the Development of Injection Molding Automation Technology in China?

In August 2025, more and more dairy products producers declared their new standards of packaging suppliers compliance auditing for IML Yogurt uups producing in 2026. Although with some slight difference, but the new standards declared by the China Yogurt Giants have one common requirement: Unmanned Production. Which will include:

  • Untouched

    In the whole production process, any touching of the IML Yogurt Cups are not allowed by human workers to guarantee that the IML Yogurt Cups produced would be free from the biotic polution and meet the food grade hygiene stackard as the Yogurt package.

  • Dust Free

    With the new standard, the Yogurt Giants request that all the IML Yogurt cups would be produced in a Completely Enclosed production system that an Open conveyor would not be allowed in an IML Yogurt cups production line. And any of the in production assessemt process can only be done via some special windows.

  • Unexpected In Production Inspection

    Different from the Automation Show wich will request that the IML Yogurt cups producers have one injection molding automation system for inspection. Under the new supplier compliance audit guideline, a commissioner will have frequent "unexpected in production inspection" to ensure that all the IML Yogurt cups are produced unmanned.

Back to the topic, how will the new supplier compliance audit standard of the China Yogurt Giants influence the development of injection molding automation technology in China? I think it would be both a challenge and opportunity to experienced IML injection automation system integrator such as GuangDong SWITEK Technology who had been working with the IML Yogurt Cups producers in the IML Yogurt cups injection automation system integration. But a disaster to the small manufacturer of IML robot who are selling their IML robot with a price war.

The Opportunities of the New Supplier Compliance Audit Standard
  • Business Opportunity

    The new standard of supplier compliance audit will lead to a new round of IML Yogurt Cups injection automation system upgrading. As an experienced integrator of the IML Solutions, SWITEK will have much more opportunity to win the contract from our other competitors in China.

  • Technology Upgrading

    A higher standard requirement of the automation system means that the producer of the IML Yogurt cups will have a better budget for the system upgrading. It'll enable the SWITEK R&D team to pay more attention to focus on the "System Design" to persue a higher efficiency of the IML Yogurt cups production.

  • Team Building

    The integration of an IML Yogurt Cups injection molding automation system is a team work of the project management, R&D and after service. The new round of system upgrading of IML Yogurt cups injection molding will attract more talents of engineering to joint SWITEK and build a strong team of injection automation system integration.

  • Turn-key IML Solutions

    To reduce the risk of dispute among the different suppliers, a turn-key solutions of the IML Yogurt cups production system with the injection mould included would be the trend because an experienced IML solutions provider like SWITEK will help to better control the quality of the mold quality and provide a ready to work injection molding automation system of IML Yogurt cups production.

The Challenges of the New Supplier Compliance Audit Standard
  • System Integration Capability

    Under the guideline of the new supplier compliance audit standard, all the IMLYogurt Cups would be produced by an injection automation system with integration of the IML robot, the vision control system and the packing system. To conduct such a complex system will have a much higher requiremnt of each team member related to the project the knowledge of the automation solution and the capability to probe into the unknown knowledge related to the automation solution.

  • A Faster Delivery Capability

    The Yogurt are mostly a seasonal products in China, and according to the new supplier compliance audit standard the IML Yogurt cups producers will have only 6 month to have their production system upgraded. It'll request the system integrator of the IML Yogurt Cups injection molding automation system have the capability to finish the system design, parts sourcing, system assembly and start up in about 4 month. It would be a challenge to any injection automation system supplier of susch a complex project.

Anyway, SWITEK team is ready to welcome the new round of technology upgrading in IML Yogurt cups injection molding to provide a full service to our clients around the world.
